James Brandon Lewis Trio - No Filter (2016)

It’s not everyday one hears something as powerful as what we’ve been presented to hear. Thankfully, we are blessed with some new heat rock from the internationally renowned jazz saxophonist and composer, James Brandon Lewis. Following two critically acclaimed albums, the James Brandon Lewis Trio returns with another inventive song in the form of “Y’all Slept,” which features the lyrical prowess of P.SO the Earth Tone King. For those just getting familiar with the hard-hitting, jazz-inspired group, the trio consists of Luke Stewart (bass), Warren G. Crudup III (drums) and, of course, James Brandon Lewis (saxophone).

Combining elements of down home jazz, early ’90s hip-hop and imaginative riffs, “Y’all Slept” serves as an alarm clock notice to those who continue to snooze on this trio who has garnered great reviews from places like The New York Times. With P.SO the Earth Tone King playing clean-up to James Brandon Lewis’ home run hitting style, “Y’all Slept” is a fresh, dynamic and energetic cut to lead off the trio’s upcoming album, No Filter, which is set for release on October 28th via BNS Sessions.
