publication date: 8 Nov 2024
In a world where connection often feels elusive, jazz legends Lionel Loueke and Dave Holland offer a remedy with their upcoming album United. This highly anticipated release goes beyond a mere collaboration; it embodies a soulful conversation between two masters from different backgrounds, melding their unique voices into something beautifully transcendent.
What began as a spontaneous moment during a soundcheck has evolved into an album that reflects the spirit of two musicians dedicated to pushing boundaries and exploring new horizons. Holland recalls: "It was one of those rare moments when everything clicked. Lionel and I were improvising and suddenly it wasn't just about the sound anymore, it was about something bigger. I turned to him and said: 'We have to do this The result is United."
