Tia Fuller's third recording on the Mack Avenue label marks her
evolution as a skilled saxophonist, composer and bandleader and
features guest vocalist Dianne Reeves, John Patitucci on bass and
Terri Lyne Carrington on drums. 'Angelic Warrior' also shows how
she's grown as a producer, her observation of the meticulous
in-studio attention to detail of Beyonc - with whom Fuller toured
and recorded for the last five years - resulting in heightened
focus on the editing, mixing and mastering process. On 'Angelic
Warrior' Fuller makes an aesthetic statement that's fully her own,
a culmination of the music that she loves. Most of the nine
originals and freshly arranged standards are dedicated to people
important in her life. Terri Lyne Carrington is the inspiration for
the recording's title. "She has this gracefulness about her but she
also has a warrior spirit," Fuller says about Carrington. "She's
really helped to pave the way for a lot of musicians, especially,
of course, female musicians. And for me, an African American woman,
she has just made a stamp and opened it up for a lot of us, such as
myself and Esperanza. She's a major mentor." "From playing with
great horn players like Wayne Shorter and Stan Getz, I just wanted
to help her and encourage her," says Carrington. "I fell in love
with Tia's playing and with her as a person. She has a lot of
respect for the history of the music and has done her homework."
