Malachi Favors was an American jazz bassist who played with the Art Ensemble of Chicago. Chicago Art Ensemble is an avant-garde jazz group that grew out of the Association for the Advancement of Creative Musicians in the late 1960s. Member Joseph Jarman described part of their style: "So what we were doing with that face painting was representing everyone throughout the universe, and that was expressed in the music as well. That’s why the music was so interesting. It wasn't limited to Western instruments, African instruments, or Asian instruments, or South American instruments, or anybody's instruments”.
