Shabaka - Perceive Its Beauty, Acknowledge Its Grace - LP

Vinyl LP, 2024

After putting down the saxophone — the instrument he has become synonymous with — Shabaka Hutchings returns with his first full-length album under his own name. Expanding on the meditative 2022 EP Afrikan Culture, Perceive Its Beauty, Acknowledge Its Grace is a deeply moving suite of primarily instrumental music, with Shabaka taking up the flute alongside a cast of guest collaborators.
