Ambrose Akinmusire & Mary Halvorson SLo-Mo Neon Luminate Hoverings

Slo-Mo Neon Luminate Hoverings, the new album by trumpeter / composer Ambrose Akinmusire and guitarist / composer Mary Halvorson, features four new compositions by each musician as well as one collaboration. The duo, long admirers of each other’s musicianship, met at Halvorson’s Brooklyn apartment and began playing together periodically, going back as far as 2009. They rehearsed the music on Slo-Mo Neon Luminate Hoverings in January 2025, just before performing it at the New York City club The Stone; they recorded this album the next day at Sear Sound.
