Jaimie Branch Biography
A mainstay of the Chicago jazz scene and an active recent addition to the New York scene,
Jaimie Branch is an avant-garde trumpeter known for her “ghostly sounds," says The New York
Times, and for "sucker punching" crowds straight from the jump off, says Time Out. Her classical
training and “unique voice capable of transforming every ensemble of which she is a part” (Jazz
Right Now) has contributed to a wide range of projects not only in jazz but also punk, noise, indie
rock, electronic and hip-hop. Branch’s prolific as-of-yet underexposed work as a composer and a
producer, as well as a sideman for the likes of William Parker, Matana Roberts, TV on the Radio
and Spoon, is all on display in her debut record Fly or Die – a dynamic 35-minute ride that dares
listeners to open their minds to music that knows no genre, no gender, no limits.
