Lead by keyboardist Henry Wu, Yussef Kamaal includes Yusseff Dayes/dr, Tom Driessler-Kareem Dayes/b and guests Mansur Brown/g, Shabaka Hutchings/ts, Yelfris Valdes/tp and Gordon Wedderburn/voc. The team is groove friendly, but not in an overblown way, as the hip keyboards slide in and out of pieces like “Strings of Light” and “Lowrider” with effortless grace. Drums and bass set deep rivulets as Wu veers between rich textures and hip CTI-styled solos. Accessible, hip and bluesy.
