Na Bi Vinyl & CDs

Review: Nat Birchall's latest release offers a vibrant mix of intricate rhythms and spiritual jazz that's both engaging and uplifting. 'Easter Sounds & System' weaves together complex melodies with deep, meditative grooves, showcasing Birchall's mastery of the saxophone. The track builds with a subtle intensity, while African-inspired percussion in 'Ethiopian Sun' introduces a new texture, deepening the atmosphere of the record. Birchall's ensemble, featuring pianist Adam Fairhall, bassist Gavin Barras and drummer Gaz Hughes, delivers a tight, energetic performance, where every note feels purposeful. This is a work that honours jazz tradition while moving it forward, offering listeners a transcendent musical experience.
