Hoodies [LP], New Jazz Underground, Vinyl

New Jazz Underground presents Hoodies, a powerful debut album that transforms their viral momentum into a defining artistic statement. The trio-Abdias Armenteros (saxophone/vocals), Sebastian Rios (bass), and T.J. Reddick (drums)-first captured global attention through street performances and striking live videos, building a devoted online following before ascending to major stages like the Newport Jazz Festival. On Hoodies, they channel their pandemic-born brotherhood into a bold, culture-conscious work that bridges jazz tradition with hip-hop-inflected grooves, Afro-Cuban rhythms, and raw, vocal-led blues. Rooted in deep musical chemistry and sharpened by years of constant performance, Hoodies captures the trio's fresh energy, precision, and emotional deepness in full force-confirming them as one of the most exciting new bands redefining jazz for a new generation.
