Marina Albero resumes her journey across the world on here new album: A Nomad of Sound. Barcelona-born jazz pianist charts an exciting course abroad with a release inspired by the freedom to explore A Nomad of Sound, written and recorded during a self-designed musical residency in New Orleans in early 2024, is the overture to an ambitious new chapter in jazz pianist Marina Albero’s lifelong musical travelogue.

The album will be self-released on November 3rd at a performance by Albero in the closing days of Seattle’s Earshot Jazz Festival. It will initially be available on CD and digital music platforms, with a vinyl pressing soon to follow. Albero’s previous album A Life Soundtrack (2019, also self-released) spent five weeks on the national jazz charts, where it peaked at #23.

A Nomad of Sound was engineered, mixed and mastered by top producer Justin Armstrong. The album’s six tracks feature several diverse lineups of predominantly NOLA-based musicians, including bassist Amina Scott, drummer Pedro Segundo, and Cuban multi-instrumentalist Yusa. Albero’s daughter Serena contributes vocals in English, Spanish and Catalan.

Stylistically, A Nomad of Sound wanders as freely as its creator, delivering contemplative pieces for jazz quintet, a hard-driving Latin number, and a New Orleans style funeral march on which Albero’s fiery keytar excursions conduct a full brass band. Recording sessions took place at New Orleans’ Marigny Studios and Ellis Marsalis Center, where Albero had the honor of playing on the late master’s piano.
