Sean Ono Lennon: Asterisms

Among the eagerly-awaited new releases is Sean Lennon's Asterisms (Tzadik Records, 2024). When I first saw the project at The Stone in early October 2022 I was immediately struck by the enormous potential of the band and their music.

Asterisms hovers over many genres and defies them all as its own thing, in a post-Bitches Brew kind of way. Plus, the band is an all-star avant-minded assemblage featuring Yuka C. Honda (electronics), Michael Leonhart (trumpet), João Luis Nogueira (Wurlitzer), Devin Hoff (bass), Ches Smith and Johnny Mathar (drums) as well as Mauro Refosco (percussion).

Enjoy the title track, but check the rest of the album.
