One of the hardest working labels in the game On The Corner Records proudly present the second album from Collocutor - "The Search"
Following on from their excellent 2014 debut "Instead" the London based ensemble led by Tamar Osborn have delivered another sublime work that converges fluently between modal jazz, spritual and afro-futurist dialogues.
"The Search" has already gained plaudits from the likes of Gilles Peterson, Mulatu Astatke and anyone else who's had the pleasure of hearing the record or seeing the band perform live. An early contender for album of the year for us here at SOTU!
This one will fly - Highly Recommended!
