The renowned bassist shares the uplifting latest single from his forthcoming album, New Love, which is released on Motéma on 11 JuneInternationally acclaimed bassist-composer and bandleader Charnett Moffett further refines a virtuosic sound on New Love, his seventh leader release for Motéma Music, and his 17th album to date. An exploratory and vibrant follow-up to his 2018 recording Bright New Day, the album expresses Moffett’s deeply personal permutations of love and an embracing of change as part of life’s progression, as he explains: “Music is a universal language that speaks to all people. In life, human beings are in the constant process of change — whether an individual is conscious of this process or not.”

A melodious conversationalist and reflexive listener, Moffett features the fretless electric bass, often in its upper register, alongside fearless collaborators Jana Herzen on guitar and vocals, Corey Garcia and rising-star Malick Koly on drums and Irwin Hall on tenor and soprano saxophones and alto flute. Interplay among the artists is an album virtue.

CHARNETT MOFFETT, son of the legendary percussionist of Ornette Coleman, Charles Moffett, is releasing a new album “New Love” on MOTEMA MUSIC on June 11th…. This musician, who has associated his work for a few years with the exquisite vocalist JANA HERZEN, has played with the elite of US jazz from McCoy Tyner to Kenny Garrett via Ornette Coleman or Wynton Marsalis. It would seem that with this new recording, CHARNETT MOFFETT explores the meanders of his musical memory and gives us his most intimate influences which have marked his career until now. Note the subtle guitar accompaniment of JANA HERZEN and the saxophone and flute interventions of the excellent IRWIN HALL. With this 14th album including 7 from Motéma Music, he affirms that he is one of the best bassists on the American scene with musicians like Marcus Miller or Christian McBride …

My three favorite themes are: Higher Dimensions, Love for the People, ETQ
