about

Vocalist Vuyo Sotashe and pianist/composer Chris Pattishall release their debut single, a haunting rendition of the Dave and Iola Brubeck song “They Say I Look Like God” with an accompanying video. This strikingly vulnerable powerhouse of a performance implores the listener to reckon with the spiritual hypocrisy of racism.

The duo performance is intimate, restrained, and spontaneous, yet retains an arresting emotional focus. Vuyo’s sinuous phrasing weaves around Chris’s accompaniment, and both musicians employ the full range of timbre from their instruments to create subtly shifting shades. By turns plaintive and rousing, the duo navigate a complex emotional and spiritual terrain with disarming directness.
