Jamila Woods

From the warm up it was clear, these guys were gonna kill this shit. Woods’s four-piece band is a revelation, showcasing a versatility able to make it through last album Legacy! Legacy!’s diverse arrangements. Bandleader Ami, Matt Skillz, Justin Canavan, and noted gospel chops drummer Leonard Maddox Jr, put on an incendiary, dialled performance providing worthy accompaniment. Woods herself put on a relaxed, if not focused performance waxing poetic with conviction, but most importantly, happy with the overwhelmingly positive crowd reception. The charismatic leading lady showed characteristic humility and poise coming out victorious over the venue’s cheap sound system. The music was powerful, with Maddox and Skillz’s rhythm section having the crowd dance all night.
