Paxton/Spangler Septet

Anthem For The New Nation The Paxton/Spangler Septet CD Release Party
For over 30 years, Tbone Paxton and RJ Spangler have been exploring the beauty of South African jazz, inspired by such artists as Hugh Masekala, Miriam Makeba and Chris McGregors Brotherhood of Breath.

Their new project, is a follow-up effort to 2020s vocal jazz recording featuring Tbone, Back in Your Own Backyard, on the Detroit Music Factory imprint. A collection of compositions,
by pianist/composer Abdullah Ibrahim, formerly known as Dollar Brand. The album is called Theme for The New Nation after one of the songs on the album. It is about respectfully
paying tribute to a great master and lifelong influence.

This seven-piece band brings plenty of energy and Detroit soul to the music. South African music has always spoken to Tbone and RJ and they wish to perform this music as part of our musical contribution to the world.
