Description
Cochemea Gastelum is coming home to connect with his roots. After nearly 15 years of touring the world with Sharon Jones and The Dap-Kings, the saxophonist offers a deeply personal album of jazz and indigenous-influenced rhythms. All My Relations out February 22 on Daptone Records, is 10 tracks of mesmerizing and spiritually ascendant instrumentation.
A California native with Yaqui and Mescalero Apache Indian ancestry, Cochemea grew up surrounded by music but without knowing much about his heritage. Both his parents were musicians, and they gave their son a heavy name meaning they were all killed asleep. Cochemea has spent much of his diverse musical career as a soloist, musical director, composer and ensemble player exploring and iterating on roots music, and All My Relations is a capstone meditation on his own ancestry.
