Sullivan Fortner - Leave That in There - VINYL LP

Three-time GRAMMY Award-winning pianist Sullivan Fortner returns with Leave That In There, a new trio album that finds him at a peak of his creativity and artistic ambition. Following the success of Southern Nights, which earned the 2025 GRAMMY Award for Best Jazz Instrumental Album, Fortner delivers his most personal work to date. Recorded with his long-standing trio featuring bassist Tyrone Allen II and drummer Kayvon Gordon, Leave That In There draws together memories, family histories, and spiritual traditions that have shaped his artistic journey. Praised by Robert Glasper as Incha masterclass in history and a glimpse of the future,Inch the album reflects Fortner's unique ability to bridge tradition and innovation by expanding the possibilities of the piano trio through a bold combination of acoustic instrumentation, analog synthesizers, marimba, and Bàtá drumming. Leave That In There becomes a space of dialogue, memory, tension, humor, and invention. The result is a bold artistic statement from one of the defining pianists of his generation, an album that broadens the language of contemporary jazz while looking simultaneously to it's past and future.
