MBR Checks Out Indigo Garden
The Midwest Book Review recommends Indigo Garden, at radio now from Black Nile. “Brothers and GRAMMY-nominated music artists Aaron and Lawrence Shaw formed the genesis of Black Nile, a band that embraces original jazz music as both creative expression and as rebellion against the injustice and murder that America has inflicted upon its black population throughout the nation’s history. They recruited additional talented performers to round out the band. Indigo Garden is their latest original album, performed by Aaron Shaw on sax, flute, bass clarinet, and ewi; Lawrence Shaw on bass and juno; Luca Mendoza and Brian Hargove on keyboards; Myles Martin and Malachi Harvey on drums; and Na’il Ali on guitar; and Soren Smedvig on trumpet. Passionate, grounded in Los Angeles, and speaking to diaspora and survival, Indigo Garden is highly recommended especially for jazz connoisseurs.”
