Chelsea Carmichael
album presentation : The River Doesn’t Like Strangers (Native Rebel Recordings, 2021)
London saxophonist Chelsea Carmichael (SEED Ensemble, Theon Cross, Neue Grafik Ensemble, Joe Armon-Jones...) was first noticed by Shabaka Hutchings (The Comet Is Coming, Sons of Kemet, Shabaka and the Ancestors) in 2019. He invited her to record her first album The River Doesn't Like Strangers for his label Native Rebel Recordings. On this album, she displays all of her talents, and the interplay and chemistry of these elite musicians evokes a brilliant image of the Rio Grande River: playful, unpredictable and masterful.
