Idris Ackamoor, Nate Mercereau, Carlos Nino

Free, Dancing . . . is the first release by a new trio with percussionist and producer Carlos Niño, luminary multi-instrumentalist Idris Ackamoor (of The Pyramids) and wizard guitarist, producer Nate Mercereau. They have been playing concerts together in California since June 2022, sharing a unique vibrant sound, findings and energetics. A remarkable environment for the ethereal reed artistry of the revered Idris Ackamoor, reinforced by the contemplative sounds of Carlos Nino, who utilize drumming and various instruments to craft an enchanting auditory environment. Additionally, guitarist Nate Mercereau contributes to the ensemble and supervises the overall sound production from the recording studio. The incisive reed passages of Idris provide an unexpected juxtaposition to the more intricate and organic components of the music, imparting a jazz performance ambiance to the record, which may otherwise resemble a mere background without his formidable presence. Comes with download code.
