American saxophonist James Brandon Lewis is known for his intense and innovative contribution to contemporary jazz. With his quartet – Aruán Ortiz (piano), Brad Jones (bass) and Chad Taylor (drums) – he weaves lyrical melodies with fiery energy and exceptional interplay. They are appearing at Flagey for the first time. On May 30, 'Abstraction is Deliverance' will be released on the Swiss label Intakt Records, their spiritual and melodically layered new album highlighting the ensemble’s versatility. Lewis, co-founder of the award-winning ensemble 'Heroes Are Gang Leaders' and member of, among others, 'Black Monument Ensemble', is described by The New York Times as “a saxophonist who embodies and transcends tradition.”
