North African, Los Angeles-based vocalist and composer Ami Taf Ra joins acclaimed saxophonist, composer, and producer Kamasi Washington for a special tour celebrating their ongoing creative collaboration and Ami’s debut album, The Prophet and the Madman. Produced by Washington and released through Brainfeeder, The Prophet and the Madman brings together Moroccan Gnawa, Arabic musical traditions, gospel, soul, and spiritual jazz in a deeply personal exploration of duality, healing, ancestral memory, and transformation. Inspired in part by the writings of Lebanese-American poet Kahlil Gibran, the album creates a sweeping musical world in which Ami’s commanding, operatic voice moves between intimacy, theatricality, and spiritual release. The Prophet and the Madman is nominated for Best Spiritual Album at the Libera Awards, and the Ami/Washington collaboration “Gnawa” was named one of NPR’s Best Songs of 2025.
