Multi-instrumentalist, producer, and composer Yussef Dayes returns with two new singles, “Marching Band,” featuring Masego, and “Tioga Pass,” featuring Rocco Palladino, both from his upcoming debut solo album, Black Classical Music, due September 8 via Brownswood Recordings, Warner Music, and Cashmere Thoughts Recordings and in the US on Nonesuch Records. You can watch visualizers for both tracks below. The arrival of new music is paired with the announcement of Dayes’ month-long US autumn tour, starting in Brooklyn on November 16; details below and at nonesuch.com/on-tour.

“Marching Band” features vocal and instrumental contributions from esteemed Jamaican-American singer/saxophonist Masego, weaving delicate harmonies between Dayes’s intricate drum work and layered instrumentation.

“Tioga Pass” additionally enlists the help of longtime collaborator and bass guitarist Rocco Palladino. “A family trip in the heart of Yosemite national park,” Dayes says of the song. “Tioga Pass was one of the views that remained clear in my mind. Rocco’s bassline and Charlie Stacey's synth instantly take me back to that moment. This is an ode to that time I guess, and to my mother who would bring us to these beautiful locations. We worked with the incredible Chineke! Orchestra for strings and the song felt complete.”

    Adam Guettel and Craig Lucas’ 'Days of Wine and Roses' Original Cast Recording, Starring Kelli O’Hara and Brian d’Arcy James, Now on CD

    The original cast album of Adam Guettel’s Broadway musical Days of Wine and Roses, with a book by Craig Lucas, starring Kelli O’Hara and Brian d’Arcy James, is now available on CD, following its recent digital release. “Repeated listenings compound the amazement,” the New York Times says of Guettel’s work, which “has always offered that kind of challenge—initially leaving a feeling of: Beautiful, but wait, I need to hear it again—and those up for it have a way of coming away shining like Moses down from the Mount. The new score has the same effect.” Guettel, O'Hara, and d'Arcy James—all of whom have been nominated for Tony Awards for Days of Wine and Roses—will sign copies of the CD at the Drama Book Shop in NYC this Wednesday, May 22.
