Description
Limited gold colored vinyl LP pressing. The Wise Ones is the 2026 album from Gretchen Parlato, one of the defining vocalists of her generation, whose phrasing, tone and rhythmic instinct have reshaped the language of modern jazz singing Fifteen years after In a Dream helped redefine the role of the voice in contemporary jazz, Parlato returns to the sound that set that shift in motion. Reuniting with Robert Glasper, Gerald Clayton, Mark Guiliana and long-time collaborator Alan Hampton, The Wise Ones brings together songs written across two decades - new reflections alongside earlier compositions, shaped into one cohesive narrative. At 50, Gretchen Parlato writes from a place of balance, gratitude and presence, holding a clear perspective between youth and elderhood.
