Collective Minds is honoured to present the globally celebrated jazz saxophonist and composer, Kamasi Washington, at the Capitol Theatre Singapore on Thursday, 5th June 2025.
After a sold-out show in 2018, Kamasi makes his highly anticipated return to Singapore as part of his Asia Tour. A genre-transcending multi-instrumentalist, composer, and bandleader, Kamasi has redefined the boundaries of modern jazz—fusing tradition with elements of soul, hip-hop, classical, and global sounds. He first rose to global prominence through his work on Pulitzer Prize-winning rapper Kendrick Lamar’s To Pimp a Butterfly in 2015, and later contributed to Lamar’s DAMN, with his saxophone performance on the track "HUMBLE" in 2017. Kamasi then followed with his own critically acclaimed 3-hour opus The Epic, and brought his expansive sound to the mainstream with his score for Netflix’s Becoming, the documentary on Michelle Obama. His contributions to Becoming earned him a 2021 Grammy nomination for Best Score Soundtrack for Visual Media and an Emmy nomination in 2020 for Outstanding Music Composition for a Documentary Series or Special (Original Dramatic Score). In addition, Kamasi was nominated for a 2022 Grammy Award for Best Progressive R&B Album for Dinner Party: Dessert.
Bringing his Fearless Movement tour to Singapore, Kamasi Washington will take the stage with his formidable 8-piece band, continuing to reshape contemporary music with bold experimentation and cultural resonance.
