Samara Joy took her band on tour, composed of other emerging young jazz musicians, to the legendary Van Gelder Studios (the venerable studio from which A Love Supreme and so many excellent records from the Impulse and Blue Note catalogues came) in February 2024. Recorded over three days, Samara and her musicians were able to capture an incredible snapshot of who she is today and the promise of tomorrow.This is a collection of standards, as well as an original and some of her first forays into lyric writing, and features her singular voice, alongside the arrangements and playing of this tight-knit young group.The recording is the story of the community she has created with a new generation of young musicians and serves as a studio rendering that fulfills the promise of the live show that so many fans have seen them perform over the past year.This album, aptly titled "Portrait," will be released worldwide.
