Raw in Amsterdam is Philip Lassiter's debut Color Red recording, a full-length LP recorded live in Amsterdam with a 13-piece band. Lassiter served as Prince's horn arranger and section leader during the New Power Generation era and Raw in Amsterdam is a collection of brand-new originals and fan favorites from previous albums reformatted with the robust live ensemble. Many of the tracks tip their hats to Prince himself with driving quarter-note grooves, syncopated guitar and bass lines, punctuated shout-like horn melodies, and layered vocal harmonies.
The album features guest appearances by rising vocalist Durand Bernarr, who is coming hot off the heels of a viral NPR Tiny Desk performance and internationally acclaimed Dutch saxophonist Candy Dulfer, who also performed with Prince during the Musicology era.
This is a very limited-edition record, so we encourage you to pre-order now to guarantee your copy. The record will be available on June 30th ahead of Philip's main stage performance at North Sea Jazz Festival in the Netherlands.
