Kamasi Washington's monumental debut for Brainfeeder. This 172-minute triple album showcases the L.A. saxophonist's expansive vision: a 17-track journey featuring two drummers, two bassists, two keyboardists, strings, choir, and horns. Washington composed and meticulously arranged 13 tracks, allowing extended improvisations across six to 15-minute pieces. Drawing from Coltrane, Horace Tapscott, and Pharoah Sanders, The Epic blends spiritual jazz, Afro-Latin grooves, and contemporary soul into a landmark statement.
Genre: Jazz, Soul, and Soul-jazz
