REDCAT Presents Jazz Artist Georgia Anne Muldrow

On Jan. 28, REDCAT welcomes prolific jazz artist Georgia Anne Muldrow, in-person and online.

Muldrow not only creates jazz music—she’s lived it since birth. Her father, Ronald Muldrow, played alongside Eddie Harris while her mother, Rickie Byars, performed as lead singer of Roland Hanna’s New York Jazz Quartet and Pharoah Sanders Ensemble. Following in her parents’ footsteps, she has collaborated with famed musicians including Robert Glasper, Adrian Younge, Ambrose Akinmursire, and more. “Jyoti” is a name bestowed upon her by the late great Alice Coltrane.

The newest Jyoti music arrives after many monumental years for Muldrow. Her most recent solo album Overload—released on Flying Lotus’ label Brainfeeder—earned her a 2020 GRAMMY nomination and landed on year-end lists for Pitchfork, Bandcamp, and The A.V. Club.
