It occurred to me that great jazz artists past and present have always reimagined pop tunes of the day. That gave me the idea of looking inward- Kenyan pop tunes that tell the stories of our times.

Sauti Sol’s ability to tell current stories through song is phenomenal. This is my take on Lazizi in a jazz trio setting which leaves lots of room to improvise yet keeping the sanctity of tune intact.

Enjoy!
