Zara McFarlane’s Arise arrived in 2017, just before London’s jazz scene gained wider international attention. Produced and co-composed by Moses Boyd, the album explores McFarlane’s Jamaican heritage through jazz, soul, reggae and Afro-Caribbean influences. Boyd also plays drums, alongside an impressive line-up featuring Binker Golding, Shabaka Hutchings, Nathaniel Cross, Peter Edwards and Shirley Tetteh. Acclaimed on release, Arise remains a key entry in the Brownswood catalogue and an early showcase for a generation of musicians who would become major figures in British jazz.
