Summary:

Antonio Sánchez is a musician whose influence far outstretches the confines of his instrument. There aren’t many drummers who are able to represent so much from behind the cymbals, even if he does have about ten of them. From 1997 onward, Sánchez notably helped to further the development of Latin jazz rhythms through his work with Danilo Pérez, David Sánchez and Sebastian Schunke. But beyond any one genre, he is now a fully-fledged member of the new polyphonic, polyrhythmic drumming vanguard alongside the likes of Nate Smith, Mark Guiliana or Makaya McCraven. This has been due, in part, to his great work in the Pat Metheny Trio alongside Christian McBride on double bass. Here, we see Sánchez’ quartet, Migration, in the same year they released a sixth studio album, Lines in the Sand, which sought to re-interpret our narratives around displaced peoples. On the back of his 2015 Grammy-win for his soundtrack on the film Birdman by Alejandro Iñárritu, Sánchez has used his increased platform to reframe the issues surrounding forced immigration, offering hope where there was none before. Listen to how subtle harmonic shifts paint new colors into the melody: uplifting and inspiring. Rowan Standish Hayes
