Jasmine Myra

Description

Jasmine Myra is one of the most exciting young jazz artists from the United Kingdom. She moved not only our bookers to tears at her last performance at Moods but also impressed critics with her two previous albums "Horizons" (2022) and "Rising" (2024). Now, the composer and bandleader is taking the next step in her unique musical journey with her new album "Where Light Settles." In nine beautiful compositions, she shares her thoughts on life, growth, and progress. Driven by her vision of duality: "Pain is inevitable, and you will always face difficulties, but without it, you don't grow and learn nothing about yourself or the world around you. These bittersweet moments are heartbreaking but so important." Her latest work is not only her first self-composed album but also her first self-produced album. Matthew Halsall, head of the Gondwana label and a proponent of the spiritual jazz tradition à la Alice Coltrane and Pharoah Sanders, served as co-producer. The album is a colorful sound world, whose atmosphere and structure are shaped by Myra's affinity for film music.
