En mars 2020, la saxophoniste Lakecia Benjamin a sorti un ensemble de 13 relectures de chansons composées par deux des figures du jazz les plus influentes des 20e et 21e siècles: Alice et John Coltrane. Avec la sortie très attendue de Pursuance, la native de New York est non seulement honorée de rendre hommage à ce couple de géants, mais elle est ravie de le faire en compagnie d’une dream team du jazz : Reggie Workman, Ron Carter, Gary Bartz, Dee Dee Bridegwater, Meshell Ndegecello, Regina Carter, Bertha Hope, Last Poets, Greg Osby, Steve Wilson, John Benitez, Marc Cary, Marcus Gilmore, Keyon Harrold, Marcus Strickland, Brandee Younger, Georgia Anne Muldrow et Jazzmeia Horn.
Nouvel album : « Pursuance: The Coltranes » (Ropeadope, Mars 2020)
