The jazz virtuoso will be broadcasting the creation of her new album over the next three days.
Esperanza Spalding is in the process of creating her new album, and you can watch all of it broadcast live on Facebook. The jazz prodigy and her band are writing and recording the album over the next three days. Spalding announced the broadcast on her page, saying, "Over just three days, we're attempting to concept, write, record, and produce an album of ten songs. Entering the studio with nothing prepared. Testing the theory that creations are at their most powerful the moment they're released. This feed will run uninterrupted for 77 hours. So if there isn't much going on while you're here, chances are it's nap time. Please check back again later."
The new album is titled Exposure, and there will only be a few thousand copies available. According to Spalding's social media, "Only 7,777 records will ever be released, each signed, each package including a piece of the note paper on which we're writing lyrics, chords and creation-related notes. To reserve a copy, visit found.ee/EspWeb-j."
