Chelsea Carmichael
album release: The River doesn't like strangers (2021, Native Rebel Recordings)
London saxophonist Chelsea Carmichael (SEED Ensemble, Theon Cross, Neue Grafik Ensemble, Joe Armon-Jones,...) was noticed in 2019 by Shabaka Hutchings (The Comet Is Coming, Sons of Kemet, Shabaka and the Ancestors) who invited her to record her own album The River Doesn't Like Strangers with his label Native Rebel Recordings. With the album, she demonstrates her talent in which the interplay and chemistry of the musicians evokes the movement of the Rio Grande: playful, unpredictable and masterful.
