Feathered Things is the new release from Chicago trumpeter Emily Kuhn and her quintet. Following the acclaimed Ghosts of Us (2023), the record finds Kuhn and her bandmates pushing their sound into new territory while deepening the collective musical voice that has defined the group since its formation.

Kuhn wrote the album's eight compositions during a week-long residency at the OxBow School of Art, an artist colony tucked in the woods between the Kalamazoo River and Lake Michigan. The mid-winter landscape, with its picture-book snowfall and sweeping terrain, left a clear mark on the music. The songs use imagery of feathers, flight, fire, and snow to explore themes of hope and resilience, painting hope as something wild and fragile, tenacious and sometimes heartbreaking, but always essential.

Feathered Things carries forward the lush, spacious quality of Ghosts of Us, described by Matt Collar of AllMusic as "the kind of lyrical, spacious jazz that draws you deep within its cocoon-like atmosphere," while pushing in new directions. The album leans further into effected sounds and textures, introduces vocals, and experiments more boldly with structure and form through through-composed passages and odd-meter grooves. A folk sensibility runs throughout, shaped in part by the Appalachian old-time and klezmer music Kuhn grew up with, alongside the influence of contemporary artists like Brad Mehldau and Brian Blade.

The five musicians in Kuhn’s quintet have played together across Chicago's jazz and broader music scenes for over a decade, and the album reflects that shared musical language. Recorded shortly after a tour supported by the SouthArts Foundation, Feathered Things captures a band at ease with one another and willing to take risks.
