      Glasgow artist Rebecca Vasmant has unveiled her new album 'Who We Are, Becoming'.

      As a musician, DJ, producer, label owner, and versatile creative, Rebecca Vasmant is a whirlwind of innovation, playing a crucial role in connecting Glasgow’s jazz scene to the wider world. A prominent artist in her own right, she fuses jazz-oriented independence with club influences and soulful melodies.

      Available now, the new album 'Who We Are, Becoming' offers an excellent, fully immersive experience. The lead single ‘Becoming’ features Terra Kin, drawn into Rebecca’s creative orbit, part of a constellation of voices she has curated to realize her vision.

      The sessions transition from jazz steppers to abstract electronics, creating a network of sound that transcends genre boundaries. Released through a new label collaboration between New Soil and Women In Jazz, the core ensemble includes Paix (interdisciplinary artist), Emilie Boyd (vocalist), Amanda Whiting (harp), Joe Rattray (bass), Graham Costello (drums), and Cameron Thomason-Duncan (trumpet).

      With the VE Day anniversary approaching this week, the album track ‘Rooted’ carries additional significance – it reflects on Rebecca’s family history and the dual legacy of trauma and love.

      She shares: “My grandparents were Holocaust survivors, hidden by a family in France. Without that concealment, my family line wouldn’t exist as everyone on the other side was killed. I am here because of that.”
