Product Details

Shabaka Hutchings built his reputation leading ferocious, politically charged ensembles like Sons of Kemet and Shabaka and the Ancestors, where the tenor saxophone was his primary voice. This transition to flute signals something quieter and more meditative, a deliberate step away from the intensity that made him one of the most important figures in London's jazz renaissance of the last decade.


After putting down the saxophone, the instrument he has become synonymous with, Shabaka returns with his first full-length album under his own name. Perceive Its beauty, Acknowledge Its Grace is a moving suite of primarily instrumental music. Shabaka is found playing the flute on this album, and has enlisted key artists such as Andre 3000, Lianne La Havas, Moses Sumney, Floating Points and more to help build this all-encompassing aural landscape.
