Info zu Black Thunder
Black Thunder ist das elektrisierende, vollständig improvisierte neue Album der in Seattle lebenden Musikerin Brittany Davis. In zwei Tagen mit dem Bassisten Evan Flory-Barnes und der Schlagzeugerin D'Vonne Lewis entstanden, lässt diese organische Live-Session die spirituelle Dringlichkeit von Nina Simone und Rahsaan Roland Kirk aufleben. Das von Josh Evans produzierte Album verbindet Jazz, Soul und gesprochene Worte zu einer rohen, kathartischen Erkundung von Identität, Abstammung und schwarzer kultureller Erinnerung. Ohne Proben und ohne Skript fängt Black Thunder den Blitz in einer Flasche ein - ein kühnes, genreübergreifendes Statement einer einzigartigen künstlerischen Stimme.

"As a blind person, I've never had an actual visual experience," says artist Brittany Davis. "Sound is the way I've always seen my world."
Brittany brings that world to cinematic life with Images Issues, their full-length debut as a solo artist, available 3.1.24 on Loosegroove Records. Arriving on the heels of 2022's I Choose to Live — an introductory EP that was championed by outlets like NPR (who hosted Davis for a Tiny Desk Concert) and SPIN Magazine (who praised Davis' "intuitive virtuosity across deeply-felt rock, funk, and R&B") — it's a wildly creative project that obliterates the traditional borders between genre and job. Brittany isn't just the album's vocalist; they're also the songwriter, engineer, co-producer, and multi-instrumentalist responsible for nearly every sound on the album. Those sounds are just as diverse as the person who created them, with Image Issues making room for gospel piano, hip-hop grooves, house beats, jazz chords, self-made samples, and everything in between. It's a wide mix — and it's all Brit.
