In between touring and collaborating with a host of big-time acts such as Kendrick Lamar and Snoop Dogg, Canadian Jazz Quartet is sharing the wealth. Today, the group announced the latest rendition of their Late Night Tales series on July 28th. On the heels of their succesful IV project, the group has decided to pay it forward and drop a 21-track compilation chockful of artists they’ve met from all over the world.
From Les Projection of France, to Velly Joonas of Estonia, to Kiki Gyan, Admas and Francis Bebey reppin’ Ghana, Ethiopia and Cameroon respectively, the project is an international showcase of talented acts who’ve shared artistic kinship with BadBadNotGood. There are moments in the project where arrangement and grooves are reminiscent of BadBadNotGood’s now-signature soundscape, but the group says that the project is a “vehicle to show everyone all the amazing music we have gotten to experience by touring and meeting new people.”
