Karl Denson's AfroSonic

For almost four decades, Karl Denson has been one of American music's most in-demand horn players and bandleaders — co-founder of the acid-jazz institution The Greyboy Allstars, longtime frontman of the genre-blurring Karl Denson's Tiny Universe and since 2014, the man holding down the saxophone chair for The Rolling Stones. As he turns 70, Denson is pouring a lifetime of groove into his most personal project yet: Karl Denson's AfroSonic. Built around his half century long deep love of Fela Kuti and West African rhythm, the band's self titled debut album arrives early next year — a horn-driven, deep-pocket outing that plays like a career's worth of funk, jazz and soul finally speaking its first language. It isn't a victory lap, It's Denson going back to the source.
