Miguel Atwood-Ferguson "Naima (feat. Brandee Younger, Joel Ross)" On Universal Music Belgium

Composer, arranger, and multi-instrumentalist Miguel Atwood-Ferguson continues to honor the lifelong influence of John Coltrane with his newest release, “Naima,” an ethereal interpretation of Coltrane’s song featuring harpist Brandee Younger and renowned vibraphonist Joel Ross. With iridescent, levitating notes, the trio pays homage to Coltrane’s spiritual legacy, reaching beyond jazz toward cosmic music. The single provides another window into ANANTA: Spirit Of Coltrane, Atwood-Ferguson’s upcoming album set for release on October 30th during John Coltrane’s centennial year. Listen to “Naima” here, watch the video here, and pre-order ANANTA: Spirit Of Coltrane on Impulse! Records here.

For more than three decades, Coltrane has occupied a singular place in Miguel Atwood-Ferguson’s imagination — a musician to admire, a master to study, and a guiding light. That relationship sits at the center of ANANTA: Spirit of Coltrane, a sweeping new meditation on Coltrane’s music and philosophy, featuring some of the most exciting voices in contemporary and improvised music. Atwood-Ferguson leads a 21-piece collective of musicians at the top of their craft, including Jeff Parker, Flying Lotus, Immanuel Wilkins, Shabaka Hutchings, Azar Lawrence, as well as an original composition by poet Aja Monet.

ANANTA: Spirit Of Coltrane will be available on all formats on October 30th via Impulse! Records.
