Best jazz around right now

Incredible from Nigerian American Annahstasia Enuke topping the list today. She’s toured with Lenny Kravitz going back a bit and had EPs out like Revival (2023) and Surface Tension last year. I’m thinking a sound particularly on ‘Villain’ between Joan Armatrading and Cassandra Wilson – there’s great soulful choral response later on in the track. Tracks in our playlist today from the singer are from Tether out next month.
