Jazz & queer black anarchist poetry
In "Vehicle/Passenger," the trio gathers around the radical poetry of Marc Alberto, which weaves through energetically improvised pieces and delicate soundscapes. The project explores a queer perspective on body, society, and improvisation, as suggested in the eponymous poem:
"vehicle/passenger
neither guide nor navigator
a carrier of time"
The sound of the trio is characterized by patient and empathic interplay among spoken word, drums, sax, double bass, and analog electronics. Intense and unapologetically political, yet always with introspection and collective awareness, Vehicle / Passenger stands at a unique intersection of music and poetry, offering a powerful commentary on contemporary issues.
