In response to the presidential inauguration of 2017, saxophonist and NEA Jazz Master Charles Lloyd and his band The Marvels joined with folk-rock pioneer Lucinda Williams to release a rendition of Bob Dylan’s protest song “Masters of War.” The success of that single has led to a new collaboration and Blue Note album, Vanished Gardens, released in June 2018, that adds Williams’ distinctive voice to an all-star lineup that includes jazz-Americana heroes Greg Leisz on pedal steel, Reuben Rogers on bass, and Eric Harland on drums.
