about

MATTERS UNKNOWN is the new project led by multi-instrumentalist and composer Jonny Enser. The long-standing brass player for celebrated Afro-Jazz collective Nubiyan Twist has created We Aren’t Just, a wide-ranging double album that channels his concepts of living dynamism and communal practice through a prolific musical compendium. It boldly encompasses Afro-jazz, celestial blues, soulful funk, electronica, hip hop and more. At its heart is a personal response to the physical and mental pain he has experienced in his life as a musician confronting disability; a coping mechanism alchemised as a universal healing force.

Celestial blues wrapped in contemporary global grooves. Project and propel the tradition.
