Listen to tyroneisaacstuart’s new single ‘Knees’ ft. Moses Boyd & Theon Cross

tyroneisaacstuart seems to be a jack and master of all trades: saxophonist, rapper, dancer and producer – he does it all! This Autumn the London based multidisciplinary artist will release his debut album. Entitled S!CK, it is divided into three acts – GUMBO, Apology and Peace. According to the press release, the record “draws on the spirit of the traditional New Orleans dish to bring a mix of diasporic musical ingredients to tyroneisaacstuart’s work at the intersection of jazz, contemporary dance, and visual art.”

To bring S!CK to life, tyroneisaacstuart enlisted a cast of stellar collaborators including Moses Boyd, Theon Cross, Shirley Tetteh, Nikos Zarkias, Jamie Murray, Jack Polley, Reiss Ellis Beckles, Kwaku Aacht and Zuri Jarret-Boswell.

We’ll have to wait until November 11th for the album to be out through New Soil but we can now hear a transcending new cut from it called ‘Knees’, featuring Theon Cross on tuba pulse and Moses Boyd on drums. Speaking about the track, tyroneisaacstuart  comments:

”Knees means a lot to me because it was the first time I’d written a song using dance as a creative tool for songwriting. Some would know the quote/book “the body keeps the score”. I agree, it not only keeps the score which helps us tell the story. Our body is full of stories, and knees is a reminder be sensitive to that.”

‘Knees’ is offered with a sublime video, directed and co-choreographed by the man himself. Here it is.
