raffy bushman: here today gone tomorrow
Francisco Espregueira
Raffy Bushman, a talented pianist, cellist, and composer, is back with his highly anticipated new album, Here Today Gone Tomorrow, out now via Bridge The Gap. This is the fifth project from Bushman in the past five years, solidifying his status as a rising star in the UK jazz scene. Bushman's music is a reflection of his lifelong musical journey, incorporating elements of hip hop, jazz, classical, and gospel. His collaboration with Unit 31, a pioneering music community, has been instrumental in shaping his unique sound.
Here Today Gone Tomorrow features a stellar lineup of musicians, including trumpeter Johnny Woodham, guitarist Luke Wynter, and a talented horn section. The album blends post-bop arranging with contemporary rhythms, creating a fresh and engaging jazz listening experience. This follows the success of Bushman's previous album, Silver Lines, which showcased his ability to seamlessly blend genres and tell compelling musical stories. Bushman’s new record is available via Bandcamp - the perfect soundtrack for our cloudy monday.
