1st Look - Trumpeter Christian Scott's New Project "Christian aTunde Adjuah"! (Video)

OOOoOo - this is exciting news! I became friends with Christian about 3 years ago and have been schooled on a lot of jazz and New Orleans history by him. He is delightful to hang around with, always curious and never settles for the status quo.

The new project entitled Christian a Tunde Adjuah is going to be a two disc set. It's going to be such a treat for everyone that has embraced Christian Scott and his vision.

The EPK (Electronic Press Kit) below was released earlier today by Concord Jazz on their YouTube Channel.

Enjoy!
