{"product_id":"where-rivers-meet","title":"Where Rivers Meet","description":"\u003cp\u003eGary Bartz and new London ensemble Your Brother‘s Keeper collaborate on Where Rivers Meet, a deeply intuitive new studio album capturing a rare meeting between generations of jazz musicians. Released on June 19, 2026 via Brownswood Recordings, as the label celebrates its 20th anniversary, the record brings together Bartz’s jazz lineage and a new collective emerging from London’s vibrant jazz scene. The result is music that unfolds with openness and intensity, guided by deep listening and collective improvisation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAt the centre of the project is Bartz, one of the most influential voices in modern jazz. A saxophonist whose career spans more than five decades, Bartz emerged performing with Charles Mingus, Max Roach and Art Blakey before joining Miles Davis during the trumpeter’s electrifying early-1970s period. He soon became a defining figure of the spiritual jazz movement through his celebrated NTU Troop recordings, creating a body of work that continues to resonate across generations of musicians and listeners alike. His playing - lyrical, searching and unmistakably soulful - remains one of the most distinctive voices in jazz.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe album also marks the arrival of Your Brother‘s Keeper, a new collective assembled by drummer and producer Jake Long (Maisha) and rooted and shared in musical dialogue and improvisation. Featuring Ali MacSween (piano, synthesizers and modular FX), Axel Kaner-Lidstrom (trumpet), Twm Dylan (double bass), Tim Doyle (percussion) and Chelsea Carmichael (tenor saxophone), alongside Long on drums, the group reflects a scene that has reshaped the sound of contemporary jazz over the past decade.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003eTracklist\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA1 - Cauldron\u003cbr\u003eA2 - Ground Loop\u003cbr\u003eA3 - Eclipse\u003cbr\u003eA4 - Solar Flare\u003cbr\u003eB1 - Locris\u003cbr\u003eB2 - Petrichor\u003cbr\u003eB3 - Mantra\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"ROM","offers":[{"title":"LP","offer_id":51604062699837,"sku":"BWOOD445LP","price":28.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"CD","offer_id":51604062732605,"sku":"BWOOD445CD","price":11.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0096\/1884\/9839\/files\/YourBrother_sKeeper_GaryBartz-WhereRiversMeet-BWOOD445LP-Packshot.jpg?v=1776414123","url":"https:\/\/sisterray.co.uk\/products\/where-rivers-meet","provider":"Sister Ray","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
