Her debut album was not released until October 2021, but Chelsea Carmichael has been a fixture on the buzzing London jazz scene for some time. As a member of the SEED Ensemble or as a sidewoman for Theon Cross, Joe Armon-Jones, the Outlook Orchestra and the Neue Grafik Ensemble, the saxophonist, who was born in Warrington (between Liverpool and Manchester) and has been living in London since her studies at Trinity Conservatory, has already made her mighty breath felt. It's a warm rumble inspired somewhat by Shabaka Hutchings, which is understandable given that the older saxophonist, the godfather of this English scene is the producer on The River Doesn't Like Strangers and has released it on his own label, Native Rebel!
Chelsea Carmichael belongs to this family of artists who connect their jazz to the music of the Caribbean diaspora, not hesitating to look towards the African continent. Together with guitarist David Okumu, bassist Tom Herbert and drummer Edward Wakili-Hick, she focuses on emphasising the contours of her compositions, which are always rooted in real melodies. This is one of the great strengths of the record: never letting the improvisations drown out the melodies, even when the piece has a trance-like feel (Myriad), when it goes in for repetitive meditation (Bone And Soil) or when it revolves around percussion (There Is You And You). In short, a real revelation. © Marc Zisman/Qobuz
