Album Description
The band’s name hints at the style of the music: an intersection of modern jazz and contemporary straight-beat influences. The group performs all original compositions written by Daniel Gassin. The band’s members fit the style of the music perfectly, with their diverse backgrounds and knowledge of multiple styles related to the jazz idiom. American vocal sensation and Montreux Jazz Festival Vocal Competition winner Alita Moses fronts the band, while US expatriate multi-instrumentalist Josiah Woodson, who was awarded a Grammy for his arranging work with Beyoncé, plays guitar. The rhythm section comprises Franco-Columbian double bassist Fabricio Nicolas-Garcia and French drummer Damien Françon. In October the band performed at Juan-les-Pins Jazz Festival, where it was selected to perform a showcase at “Jammin’ Juan.” In November the band was a finalist at the Sibiu Jazz Competition, winning Second Prize. The Daniel Gassin Crossover Band has recently released its debut 5-track EP.
