Irreversible Entanglements
album release: Protect your light (2023, Impulse! Records)
Activist jazz with a sharp focus, contemplation, and moments of joy. This is what the American jazz collective Irreversible Entanglements, led by musician and poet Camae Ayewa (Moor Mother), brings to the stage. In The Great Bailout (2024, Anti Records), her latest solo album, she conveys social and historical injustice, grief, and anger so powerfully that it leaves a lasting impression. Irreversible Entanglements channels a similar energy, combining the jazz tradition of free improvisation to create a contemporary ritual that also radiates love, freedom, and hope. Listen attentively, as the music and lyrics are so layered that you won’t want to miss a single moment. And live? That’s when the power of their music and poetry truly comes to life.
