Acclaimed GRAMMY-winning multi-instrumentalist, singer, and songwriter Meshell Ndegeocello makes her Blue Note Records debut with 'The Omnichord Real Book', a visionary, expansive, and deeply jazz-influenced album that marks the start of a new chapter in her career.
Following her 2018 covers album 'Ventriloquism', Meshell returns with an album of new original material that taps into a broad spectrum of her musical roots.
The 'Omnichord Real Book' was produced by Josh Johnson and features a wide range of guest artists including Jason Moran, Ambrose Akinmusire, Joel Ross, Jeff Parker, Brandee Younger, Julius Rodriguez, Mark Guiliana, Cory Henry, Joan As Police Woman, Thandiswa,
Ndegeocello goes on to say, "with this record, I'm moving from the dogma of religion, my parents, the American dream, and politics. I'm also moving from the musical dogma set on myself, which was that I am supposed to be funky, soulful, political, and all the other things all of the time. If this is my last project, I feel like it is the most authentic thing I have to offer."
