About Me
Saxophonist/Composer/Producer Dave Mullen offers a welcome dose of SOLACE to a world sorely
in need of it on his invigorating new album on Mullsoul Music Records that features the exhilarating
musicianship of a group of his masterful peers: pianist Jon Cowherd, bassist Hans Glawischnig,
drummer E.J. Strickland and, in a pair of special guest appearances, trumpeter Jim Seeley. The album
was also mixed by the Grammy-winning producer engineer Jeff Jones, a regular collaborator with
Jazz at Lincoln Center. Far from the somber elegy the title might imply, however, Mullen introduces 7
songs that pay homage to the likes of some of jazz's most iconic and inspiring voices John Coltrane,
Thelonious Monk, Duke Ellington, Michael Brecker, and Rahsaan Roland Kirk.

many renowned artists such as Nile Rodgers, Gloria Gaynor, Roy Ayers, Gil Scott Heron, Vic Juris,
Marc Ribot, Mark Egan, John Hicks, Bernie Worrell, John Medeski, Hans Glawischnig, Boris Koslov,
