Visionary British saxophonist and het multi-form ensemble celebrate tenth anniversary._
Cassie Kinoshi is a figurehead of the ‘new wave of British jazz’. The London- and Berlin-based alto saxophonist has been conquering venues and festivals for ten years with her group .seed. But she also composes for film, theatre, contemporary dance and visual art. What connects all of her projects is a passion for big, orchestral sounds and storytelling with melody. With every performance, the eleven-piece .seed gives a new twist to her music.
The soon-to-be-released new album by Cassie Kinoshi and . seed will follow up gratitude, which appeared in 2024 on the label International Anthem from Chicago. This acclaimed album was a collaboration with the London Contemporary Orchestra and DJ/turntablist NikNak. Cassie Kinoshi won the Ivors Academy Award in 2018 and the Mercury Prize in 2019. As a member of Nérija and Kokoroko she was part of a surge of young bands that gave a new impulse to British jazz.
‘This important work brings together aspects of jazz and classical music, but always feels contemporary and reflective of urban British life’ (UK Jazz News on gratitude).
