Brandee Younger

Somewhat Different

£13.99

Released: 13th August 2021. 'Somewhere Different' is Brandee Younger's major label debut album. Brandee composed and recorded the album in New York City and at the legendary Van Gelder Studios in New Jersey from November 2020 to February 2021. 'Somewhere Different' evokes nostalgic Black soul, informed by pioneering harpists Alice Coltrane and Dorothy Ashby as well as '90s R&B groups like SWV and Xscape. Side A is introspective and downtempo, soundtracking months of isolation during the pandemic, while side B includes raucous rock arrangements and more vigorous tracks. Features Allan Mednard on drums and Rashaan Carter on bass, with appearances by legendary bassist Ron Carter, trumpeter Maurice Brown, tenor saxophonist Chelsea Baratz, flutist Anne Drummond and drummer Marcus Gilmore, Ron Carter on 'Olivia Benson' and 'Beautiful is Black', and Tarriona 'Tank' Ball (from Tank and the Bangas) on 'Pretend'.
