Plum & Cherry captures the vibrant spirit of South African jazz through the exceptional artistry of Basil Coetzee and Lionel Pillay. Drawing influence from the laid-back Cape grooves introduced by Abdullah Ibrahim in the 1970s, the album reflects the grace and vitality of township life, where soulful melodies and rhythmic improvisation thrive.
Listeners will find themselves immersed in rich musical storytelling, from the breezy, evocative “Cherry” to the adventurous, 20-minute journey of “Plum,” marked by Pillay’s electrifying keyboard experimentation. Revered for its genre-blurring soundscapes and cultural significance, this 2023 release from We Are Busy Bodies is an essential piece for any jazz enthusiast seeking a glimpse into South Africa’s legendary jazz movement.
