Chief Adjuah
On his website, Chief Adjuah opens a “Letter to a future artist” with a succinct statement of his creative approach: “As an artist, I am always attempting to do things that haven't been done.” Adjuah rose to prominence in the jazz world playing trumpet, but plays many different instruments on his latest album, 2023’s Bark Out Thunder Roar Out Lightning, which respects the past and looks to the future while merging music traditions of New Orleans and West Africa; it’s a hypnotic listening experience.
