EFG London Jazz Festival 2024: Samora Pinderhughes
Tuesday 19 November 2024
7:00 pm - 9:30 pm
Samora Pinderhughes is a composer, pianist, vocalist, filmmaker, and multidisciplinary artist known for striking intimacy and carefully crafted, radically honest lyrics alongside high-level musicianship.
He is a sought-after collaborator with an eye for the bigger picture and has worked with the likes of Robert Glasper, Karriem Riggins and Common under the August Greene moniker, as well as Burniss Travis, Chief Xian aTunde Adjuah or his sister & flautist Elena Pinderhughes.
He uses his music to examine sociopolitical issues and fight for change, working in the tradition of the black surrealists throughout the African Diaspora, those who bend word, sound, and image towards the causes of revolution. Pinderhughes is a prison and police abolitionist, an anti-capitalist, and an advocate for process over product.
