Georgia Anne Muldrow

About

Georgia Anne 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, Justin Brown's Nyeusi, and Keyon Harrold. 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. 2019 saw Georgia perform at numerous Jazz Festivals around the globe: Nublu Jazz Festival (Brazil), Portland Jazz Festival (Portland, US), Bric Festival (Brooklyn, US), Blue Note Tokyo (Japan), New York Winter Jazz Festival, and the DC Jazz Festival, to name a few.
