Thank you all for listening, have a blessed day.

The idea behind 'Ancestry' was to explore the stories from my family history, including my great, great grandfather: a black minister who married a white woman in Jamaica in 1880;  his son, the conservator of forestry on the island, who planted the trees that are now under threat from the extreme weather and flooding of the climate crisis; and the living and future children in our family, all framing the expression of themes of climate justice, dual heritage identity and generational healing.
 
The album was funded by Arts Council England and the MOBO fund of Help Musicians UK. I worked with producer Doug Cave, whose music features regularly on BBC Radio 1, BBC 6 Music, Worldwide FM and has frequent rotation on Spotify's jazz/leftfield Playlists, as well as some of Bristol's finest new wave jazz musicians from Snazzback, No Go Stop and Cousin Kula. 

The sound was inspired by classic artists like Marvin Gaye, Carole King and Minnie Riperton as well as Robert Glasper-esque RnB and jazz, and contemporary artists like of Cleo Sol, Sault, Michael Kiwanuka and Jordan Rakei, as well as spoken word of Arlo Parks and Kae Tempest.

Lizzie calls from Bromgrove in the West Midlands of England to ask about the phrase Would you jump in my grave as quick? She remembers hearing friends say it when, for example, someone took their nice warm spot on the sofa when they got up to make a cup of tea. The phrase is used with an element of faux or real indignation, as if to say "How dare you take my spot?" A version of this phrase appears in the hilarious action movie Hot Fuzz and novelist Jojo Moyes used it in the novel Me Before You (Bookshop|Amazon). http://waywordradio.org

Follow Maysa for a tour - in Chinese - of the Living Crafts Centre by Ock Pop Tok. We have to warn you though, you'll definitely want to jump into a plane for Luang Prabang afterwards...
