Ben Holman’s Bird Dogs Of Paradise documents US trumpeter Jaimie Branch’s visit to EFG London Jazz Festival in 2018, as well as the making of her new album Fly Or Die II: Bird Dogs Of Paradise. The 13 minute short was mostly filmed by director Holman and Gui Bailey, but it also contains footage of Branch’s studio sessions at London music venue Total Refreshment Centre, and at her residency at Cafe Oto, shot by Fabrice Bourgelle and Charles Prest respectively. The album itself is released on 11 October via International Anthem.

A listening party for the new album will take place on 10 October at New York Brooklyn’s Red Hook. And Branch returns to the UK for a show at St James The Great Church in Clapton, East London on 22 November.
