About the Album

Anyone looking for confirmation that jazz has a strong future needs to look no further than tenor saxophonist Rico Jones. His New York leader debut, recorded live, shows that he is already a powerful voice both as an instrumentalist and a composer. This deeply personal album explores the saxophonist’s heritage, personal connections and spirituality in a powerful live context. The soul-searching original composition “The Voice of God Shines Brightly On My Heart” is a strong vehicle for Jones and his multi-generational quartet: guitarist Max Light, bassist Joe Martin and drummer Nasheet Waits.
