The genre-blending Minneapolis native returns with his salute to Erykah Badu, the high priestess of neo-soul. Recording “On & On,” a collection of Badu songs, was a challenge that required James to get in touch with his inner feminist. He views Badu’s material as essential additions to the modern jazz repertoire. He’ll be accompanied by an ensemble that includes 18-year-old saxophonist Ebban Dorsey, who played on the record.
