“This latest offering was written by Oluo and his wife, the essayist Lindy West, and belongs to his signature genre: the standup jazz memoir.
...[Aham] delivers personal anecdotes with stealth punch lines that are sandwiched among original compositions. Gleaming with stratospheric brass and propulsive melody, the numbers are performed by a crackerjack seven-piece band (including Oluo on trumpet) and two vocalists (Okanomode and Tiffany Wilson).”
Other band members include: Skerik on tenor sax, Marina Albero on keys, D’Vonne Lewis on drums, Jerome Smith on trombone/sousaphone and Jason Cressey on trombone.
