With two spell-binding solo renditions.
Performing rhythmically complex, looped and layered a cappella soul, Brooklyn-based singer and composer Madison McFerrin’ brought her breezy, jazz-inflected sound to VF’s latest Soho Radio show.
Powerfully understated, McFerrin performed ‘Shine’ from her latest EP Finding Foundations Vol.2, ‘No Time To Lose’ from Vol. 1, and spoke to VF Editor Anton Spice about finding her own voice in a particularly musical family. (Her father is jazz singer Bobby McFerrin, her brother Taylor, a multi-instrumentalist who has released on Brainfeeder). She also shared a forthcoming remix of ‘Insane’ from friend and collaborator ARKTKT.
As ever, the show also features a selection of new music and reissues currently on the turntable at VF, including a taste of Shafiq Husayn’s new album, UK jazz from Sarah Tandy, Lee ‘Scratch’ Perry and Adrian Sherwood’s latest collaboration, and Anatolian-infused jams from Kit Sebastian and Mavi Güneş 69.
