Frannk Carlberg, Lorraine Feather, Entre Amigos & Eric Scott Reed

Welcome aboard our 908th voyage into the world of Neon Jazz. We kick things off with the luminous sounds of LA-based maestro Eric Scott Reed, showcasing fresh tracks from his stellar 2025 release, Out Late. From there, it's a rich ride through the vibrant pulse of modern jazz, guided by veterans who continue to shape the genre with grace and fire. You'll hear new gems from the likes of Frank Carlberg, the ever-eloquent Lorraine Feather, the inventive Bevan Manson, and the masterful touches of Greg Hopkins and Paul Hecht. We double down with two riveting cuts from Gustavo Cortiñas, then shift gears to spotlight the commanding voice of Deb Brown, a talent spanning stage, screen, and sound. The journey deepens with global grooves from Entre Amigos and the electric rhythms of Salsa De La Bahia. And to close, we dim the lights and soak in a Latin-infused groove from Boston's own Ron Rieder. Dig the sounds. Feel the soul. This is Neon Jazz.
