'Uplifting and celebratory... infused with exceptional energy and joy' Twistedsoul Jonny Wickham, London based bassist and composer, releases his debut album as a bandleader. ‘Terra Boa' (translates to mean 'Good Earth', a nod in respect to the vibrant and fertile musical grounds of Brazil.) Is a self-professed love letter to to the sprawling rhythmic traditions of Brazil. A record handled with deep musical sensitivity and knowledge, it embraces tradition & lineage whilst forging its own unique path through the lens of contemporary jazz and improvised music. . “Composed with great care and a deep knowledge of the genre...his affection for Brazil’s rich musical heritage has resulted in the creation of truly authentic-sounding music, which displays a level of creative respect that deserves recognition.” RGM Magazine
