A free jazz quintet with an experimental punk mentality, Irreversible Entanglements is “the most thrilling band in jazz right now” (NPR). Driven by poet/vocalist Camae Ayewa’s (aka Moor Mother) searing narrations of Black trauma, survival, and power, Irreversible Entanglements brings first-wave free jazz’s tradition of resistance acutely into the now. This is deeply improvised rhythm music full of love, protest, and social commitment are honouring the past, speaking to the present, and making sonic claims on the future. Featuring bassist Luke Stewart, saxophonist Keir Neuringer, trumpeter Aquiles Navarro, and drummer Tcheser Holmes, their new album Protect Your Light—on the legendary Impulse! Label—is “a major statement from artists who are as much the new wave of jazz as John Coltrane, Albert Ayler, Archie Shepp et al were in their day.” - The Wire
