Immanuel Wilkins's second studio album, "The 7th Hand" (2022), released on Blue Note Records, showcases the quartet's intense interplay and adventurous harmonic language. Built on original compositions, the album features tightly interwoven melodies, often performed in unison by Wilkins's alto saxophone and Micah Thomas's piano, that shift fluidly between keys and emotional registers. This dynamic approach creates a sound that blends blues, soul, and jazz elements, resulting in a powerful and spiritually evocative listening experience.
