In 2022, Tom Skinner of the Smile released the solo album Voices of Bishara. He’s now readying a live album called Voices of Bishara Live at “Mu”. The full-length arrives on May 10, via International Anthem, and features the musician and his ensemble’s performance of the 2022 album’s tracks and more. Below, listen to a live take on Abdul Wadud’s 1970s composition “Oasis.”
Skinner, woodwinds players Robert Stillman and Chelsea Carmichael, cellist Kareem Dayes, and bassist Tom Herbert recorded their new album live at London’s “Mu” in January 2023. The ensemble will perform again at the venue in May.
