Terri Lyne Carrington “We Insist! 2025” Featuring Christie Dashiell

Four-time Grammy Award-winning drummer Terri Lyne Carrington and a live band will perform songs from the “post-bop” jazz era in a bold reimagining of the seminal album “We Insist! Max Roach’s Freedom Now Suite.” The concert also will feature singer Christie Dashiell, reprising Oscar Brown’s powerful lyrics and vocals by Abbey Lincoln from the pioneering 1961 release.

“We Insist! 2025,” an album of songs co-composed by Carrington and Dashiell and released in June, means to recapture the sonic and sometimes physical urgency of the turbulent 1960s with an expressive, athletic, and assertive vibe. Their tribute calls on Roach’s legacy while expanding its sonic palette with hints of gospel, neo-soul, funk, Afro-Latin, West African traditions, and blues.
