Summary

Luminary Lonnie Holley released Broken Mirror: A Selfie Reflection with Matt White in 2022. The amalgam of afro-futurism and cosmic southern funk make for a rollicking time for a juxtaposition for two artists that make for surprising collaborators. Holley, born in Birmingham, Alabama, in 1950, has dedicated his life to improvisational creativity in the form of both sound and visual art. White, a Virginia-based producer and musician who’s worked with the likes of Bon Iver’s Justin Vernon, Sharon Van Etten & the Mountain Goats. “I am an African-American, colored, Black or from the negros that were brought to America on slave ships,” says Holley. “So when I do something like ‘I Snuck Off the Slave Ship’ or ‘Broken Mirror Reflections,’ [those were] two different pieces of music, but aren’t we still bound by those conditions? We’re bound by slavery and we’re bound by the fear of the broken mirror.” Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
