“James Brandon Lewis is on the top of the international jazz world. With a powerful, direct and rich tenor saxophone sound and a lyrical quality that unfolds in both his solos and his compositions, he is creating a sensation – most effectively with his quartet. Abstraction Is Deliverance is the fifth album by the acclaimed James Brandon Lewis Quartet with Aruán Ortiz, Brad Jones and Chad Taylor.
After the internationally acclaimed albums Molecular, Code of Being, MSM Molecular Systematic Music Live and Transfiguration, James Brandon Lewis now presents Abstraction Is Deliverance – a wonderful ballad album that isn't one. With a profound sense for lyrical melodies, tonal concision and dynamics, the quartet develop a spirited interplay, reacting to the tiniest atmospheric oscillations on the sound and groove level. Teju Cole, whose books are considered outstanding works of recent American literature, contributes a text in the booklet to this new masterpiece. Look forward to a sweeping indulgence.”
