((The Comet Is Coming)) Band Profile and Upcoming Chicago Concerts - Oh My Rockness

Written by Patrick McNamara

The Comet is Coming is an intoxicating and extremely dope London trio led by saxophonist-clarinetist Shabaka Hutchings*.

Think far out acid space jazz meets 100% danceable beats meets improvised free expression of the divinely funky and cosmically sublime.

In other words, this band is the shit.

Blast a dose of their intercelestial sounds below and then go see them play and enjoy your trip to Mars.

*after you get done appreciating the radiant tracks below, listen to more of Hutchings magical work in Sons of Kemet and his recent collaborations with Makaya McCraven and Kamasi Washington

The Players:
