The legendary saxophonist, composer, and jazz mystic Charles Lloyd celebrated his 80th birthday on March 15, 2018, at his hometown venue, Santa Barbara’s Lobero Theatre, with an unprecedented grouping of musical friends including guitarist Julian Lage, pianist Gerald Clayton, bassist Reuben Rogers, and drummer Eric Harland, with special guests organist Booker T. Jones and bassist Don Was joining the ensemble midway. His new album 8: Kindred Spirits, Live From the Lobero documents both the sights and sounds of that extraordinary concert, and arrives in a signed and hand numbered limited-edition deluxe box set of the full performance...
Charles Lloyd is an NEA Jazz Master and recent recipient of the prestigious French honor l'Ordre Chevalier des Arts et des Lettres, which was presented to the saxophone legend during his European tour in November 2019. Lloyd signed with Blue Note in 2015 and has since released four exceptional albums: Wild Man Dance (2015), an album-length suite composed for a unique group comprised of pianist Gerald Clayton, bassist Joe Sanders, drummer Gerald Cleaver, Greek lyra virtuoso Sokratis Sinopoulos, and Hungarian cimbalom maestro Miklós Lukács; I Long to See You(2016), featuring The Marvels with guitarist Bill Frisell, pedal steel guitarist Greg Leisz, bassist Reugen Rogers, and drummer Eric Harland; Passin’ Thru (2017), a passionate live recording that marked the 10th anniversary of the New Quartet with pianist Jason Moran, Rogers, and Harland; Vanished Gardens (2018), a transcendent collaboration with singer-songwriter Lucinda Williams and The Marvels that wove together several threads of American music (Jazz, Blues, Americana, Country, and Rock) into a thrilling and uplifting new musical hybrid.
