Essence of Now is Walzer’s sixth album as a bandleader and showcases his production versatility on piano, drums, mallets, percussion, and audio engineer. The title commemorates the 20th anniversary of Essence of Now Records, a Midwest-based record label that Walzer started in 2001. Under Walzer’s vision and guidance, the label released several albums featuring national radio airplay, multiple Cincinnati Entertainment Award nominations, and positive reviews. The majority of Essence of Now was tracked and mixed during the recent pandemic and reflects Walzer’s eclectic influences in styles ranging from jazz, progressive rock, and contemporary classical to new age and ambient EDM. Along with Walzer’s performing, songwriting, and mixing work, Essence of Now features contributions from bassists Adam Nitti and Aaron Jacobs, saxophonist Jay Reynolds, guitarists Dave Isaacs, Toby Ellis, and Doug Dunlap, cellist Aaron Fried, and percussionist Gareth Dylan Smith. The album was mastered by Ken Love at Sweetwater Studios and is available on all major streaming platforms.
