Album Description
Tyler Cooney and Steve Newcomb performed two sets of intimate guitar / piano music, playing a heavy mix of Wayne Shorter, peppered by select originals. Presented here are some choice cuts from that performance. Tyler Cooney is a Brisbane based guitarist, composer, and educator. As well as leading and co-leading his own projects Monsterra, Headland, and as a solo artist, he performs as a sideman in a number of other diverse ensembles including Mosspaw, and Kerbside Collection. In 2022 he released his debut album of original compositions for guitar trio entitled ‘Modern Ideal’, and in 2023 he was a nominee in the Freedman Fellowship awards. Steve Newcomb is an Australian pianist and composer equally in demand for his unique touch on the piano, detailed writing, and comprehensive style of arranging that explores the realm shared by jazz and new music. He maintains an active solo career and shares the stage with a multitude of artists, performing in various styles and making “music in a knotty zone where Thelonious Monk meets classical music” (Sydney Morning Herald).
