Terri Lyne & Christie Dashiell Carrington - We Insist 2025! (LP)

Drummer, composer, and social justice advocate Terri Lyne Carrington teams up with acclaimed vocalist Christie Dashiell for We Insist 2025!, a bold reimagining of the landmark 1960 Max Roach album that originally served as a powerful statement against racial injustice. Released on the storied Candid label in 2025, this project carries that spirit of resistance and freedom into the present day, blending jazz with Afro-Latin, funk, and soul influences.

Dashiell's voice — described as possessing "a sumptuously rich timbre" and "a powerful storytelling gift" — anchors the album with emotional depth, while Carrington's visionary arrangements give timeless themes of liberation and resilience an urgent, contemporary voice. Tracks like the swinging Afro-Latin reimagining of "Driva' Man" and the expansive "Triptych: Resolve/Resist/Reimagine" demonstrate the duo's commitment to using music as a platform for meaningful social commentary, making this a deeply resonant and artistically ambitious record.
