Xhosa Cole is a name that has been bandied about for the best part of a decade now. After winning the BBC Young Jazz Musician of the Year in 2018, it felt like everyone was waiting for the contemporary jazz artist to live up to his hype, or implode because of it. With each new album Cole has grown in confidence as a player and songwriter. Now, on his third album – a love letter and reinterpretation of works by musical idol, Thelonious Monk – we’re starting to see the fruition of that praise and work ethic paying off.
The first thing you notice about On a Modern Genius, (Vol. 1) is how much fun it is. After a few listens you begin to notice something that sounds like tap dancing on half the tracks. You aren’t being deceived, that is tap dancing.
