Three-time Grammy-nominated Boney James—saxophonist, songwriter, and composer—discusses his latest album “Batucada (The Beat),” which has logged several weeks already at #1 on the Billboard Contemporary Jazz Albums chart. The New York Times wrote of his latest album that it sounded “at ease but alert… capable of striking an imploring tone without an overdose of saccharine.” The Boston Globe wrote that his music is “muscular and gritty” with “Santa Barbara Funk.” Clearly, his music sucks in even non-jazz lovers and puts them in a different kind of space.
