Joshua Redman, a renowned saxophonist, composer, and bandleader, epitomizes the finest in jazz music. Throughout his illustrious three-decade career, Redman has consistently expanded the boundaries of jazz while remaining true to its core. His latest album, Where Are We, marks his debut as a Blue Note artist, presenting a compelling program featuring a dynamic vocalist, Gabrielle Cavassa.

The album, conceived during the pandemic, explores themes of isolation, wanderlust, and American identity. Redman’s collaboration with Cavassa, along with a stellar ensemble including Brian Blade, Aaron Parks, and Joe Sanders, creates a musical journey through various American cities, blending genres and generations seamlessly. With nods to iconic jazz standards and contemporary influences, Where Are We is a celebration, examination, and meditation on the American experience, leaving listeners inspired by Redman’s unparalleled artistry.
