Album Notes & Community Reviews

Acting as her first proper release as a primary leader, this album captures the brilliant avant-garde vocalist pushing the extreme outer limits of free improvisation. Utilizing guttural sounds, sound poetry, and deeply abstract phrasing alongside elite free jazz accompanists, it serves as a towering achievement in radical vocal expression.
