The World

Justin Adams says the most interesting thing about working with Juldeh Camara is that “there’s very little talking.”

Adams says what they do is really like a musical conversation.

“Juldeh will play a little musical figure or it might be that I’ll start with a musical figure and then we just groove off each other doing variations,” he says.
