Die GRAMMY-prämierte Multiinstrumentalistin, Sängerin und Songwriterin Meshell Ndegeocello gibt ihr Blue-Note-Debüt mit „The Omnichord Real Book“, einem visionären und stark Jazz-basierten Album, das den Beginn eines neuen Kapitels in ihrer Karriere markiert. Nach ihrem Cover-Album „Ventriloquism“ aus dem Jahr 2018 kehrt Meshell jetzt mit einem Album mit 100% neuem, eigenen Material zurück, das ein breites Spektrum ihrer musikalischen Wurzeln abdeckt. „The Omnichord Real Book“ wurde von Josh Johnson produziert und präsentiert eine vielseitige Auswahl von Gastkünstlern, darunter Jason Moran, Ambrose Akinmusire, Joel Ross, Jeff Parker, Brandee Younger, Julius Rodriguez, Mark Guiliana, Cory Henry, Joan As Police Woman, Thandiswa und andere.
