Vocalist, composer, and SiriusXM's Real Jazz host Andromeda Turre's new album From The Earth is an immersive four-part jazz suite, rooted in environmental justice. Presented as four concertos, each segment of the From The Earth suite is connected to a North American community affected by climate change, and is sonically reflective of their respective biosopheres. Enriched by recorded interviews with leaders of these communities that are also affected by the remnants of systems such as redlining and colonization, this poignant and creative contemporary jazz suite is an arresting call to action, and continues the long-standing tradition of using jazz as a tool for activism.
