The Nublu Orchestra is assembled from the multifaceted range of musicians that call, the club and label on Avenue C of the NYC: Nublu, home. Band-members from Brazilian Girls, Wax Poetic, Kudu, I Led 3 Lives and Love Trio and regular Nublu guests Graham Haynes and Eddie Henderson all sit under the baton of Butch Morris, the inventor of Conduction®. “Conduction is contingent on social and cultural structures but is not limited to or dependent on style or category,” Morris says, as he begins to explain his relationship to the Nublu Orchestra. “Musicians, no matter what their musical background, under the baton of Conduction play whatever it is that they play best. They give it to me and I reshape it. Nublu Orchestra is made up of, but not limited to, musicians from many different camps: jazz, funk, pop, fusion, Brazilian, R&B, classical… but the music we make is none of these… If Nublu means anything it means “inclusive nature” (rather than exclusive). It means we will find the center of balance and cosmology no matter whom is in the band… Nublu reflects the music and the music reflects Nublu. It’s a total encounter in the moment.”
