Led by celebrated saxophonist, clarinetist, and composer Shabaka Hutchings, Sons of Kemet are a political, U.K.-based modern jazz supergroup comprised of musicians from across the globe. Their sound combines modal and free jazz, African rhythms and modes, and Caribbean dub and Middle Eastern timbres, as evidenced by 2018's internationally renowned Your Queen Is a Reptile on Impulse! After touring the U.K. and Europe on the festival circuit, Sons of Kemet returned to England and its members focused on several outside projects. The band celebrated its tenth anniversary with the 2021 album Black to the Future.
