About This Release:

Phil Dawson, UK guitarist and producer, learned his trade with legends like South African jazz trumpet giant Hugh Masekela, Nigerian Afrobeat co-creator Tony Allen, Ethio- jazz pioneer Mulatu Astatke, and Ghanaian afro-rock dons Osibisa as well as a large handful of Brit Jazz and cultural fusion projects.
'Don't Waste Your Ancestors' Time' creates a new blend of Afro- and Afro-Brazilian grooves, high-level improv and dub, and boasts an array of collaborators that push the music in new directions - spoken word artist Khadijatou Doyneh (Heliocentrics); saxophonist Tony Kofi (Abdullah Ibrahim, Jazz Jamaica, Cymande etc), top pianist Sam Leak (Aquarium), Afrobeat maestro Dele Sosimi, who vocalises in contexts he's not been heard in before; progressive UK tenor player John Martin; Ruby Rushton's Nick Walters on trumpet; Nigerian singer Biola Dosunmu (Estuary 17); Bellowhead and Dele's horn arranger, trombonist Justin Thurgur, as well as a cameo from Tamar Collocutor. The album's title paraphrases novelist Wole Soyinka in a plea to all not to throw away what their ancestors fought for - whether that's through ignoring spiritual heritages, allowing ourselves to be divided and conquered, or turning a blind eye to contemporary injustices....

Track listing and info
Ghanaba
A tribute to master drummer and cultural fusion pioneer Kofi Ghanaba (Guy Warren) that spans Ghana highlife, hints of William Onyeabor, Joao Donato-style keys, and sections of both Elvinesque polyrhythm and baiao... featuring Tony Kofi on tenor sax doing his Pharaoh thing, and Rowland Sutherland with a dazzling flute solo.

Ile (part 1)
Yoruba multi-vocals from Dele Sosimi and Biola Dosunmu, together with mind-bending solos from Sam Leak (piano), John Martin (tenor sax) and Rowland Sutherland (flute) in a Kamasi-meets-late Coltrane mode, morphing into a vintage bossa stew and dedicated to the gods of abundance.

Shifting Sands (Mainline)
A poem by Khadijatou, philosophising from her immediate surroundings in a backdrop of warped highlife guitar and 'Filles de Kilimanjaro'-inspired Fender Rhodes with flute commentary from Rowland.
