What an unlikely pairing – big-haired saxophonist Adam Waldmann with über-chilled soulman Omar. Rumour has it they met at the 2011’s MOBO Awards, where Waldmann was collecting the gong for Best Jazz Act.
Two years later we have Song For The Open Road, a track that’s a foretaste to Everything We Hold, a new jazz album from Waldmann’s Kairos 4tet. The recording is out on June 10th on Naim Jazz, home to the likes of the Neil Cowley Trio.
