EFW Presents: Jamaaladeen Tacuma / James Brandon Lewis — "On Your Shoulders"

“Jamaaladeen Tacuma is the hardest-grooving bass player I've ever worked with or heard.” — Guitarist Marc Ribot Elysium Furnace Works is proud to present a formidable, acclaimed new project featuring two renowned musicians: bassist Jamaaladeen Tacuma and saxophonist James Brandon Lewis, performing as “On Your Shoulders”. This historic collaboration between the legendary harmolodic bass pioneer from Ornette Coleman's innovative electric ensemble Prime Time Tacuma with the DownBeat Magazine Rising Star on tenor saxophone Lewis is a multi-generational celebration honoring past trailblazers and offering, in Mr. Tacuma's words, "a special thank you to all the mentors and elders in music."
