Inspired by Wayne Shorter, Miles Davis, Terence Blanchard, David Axelrod, Holst, Kamasi Washington, John & Alice Coltrane, Andre 3000, Scott Walker, Don Ellis, Mama Terra make music for the Eye of the Storm – where fear, beauty and stillness coexist. Mama Terra are hotly tipped by JazzFM, and are signed to legendary London label Acid Jazz Records. ‘Inner Space’ was recorded between Glasgow, Los Angeles & Brooklyn. It expands on the themes started on ‘The Summoned’, exploring and celebrating what we are and can be! An inward journey personally, mirroring the themes of self discovery of who we are and what lives on ‘Mama Terra’. “This is the kind of, ‘If this is jazz, then I like it’ music that will make a lot of friends in live performance.” – Jazzwise Line up: Marco Cafolla – Piano Konrad Wiszniewski – Tenor/Soprano Sax Mikey Owers – Trombone Ross Saunders – Upright Bass Doug Hough – Drums Instagram Facebook
