Adam Holzman and Brave New World: Iron Curtain

by Mike Jacobs
Keyboardist Adam Holzman may be known more these days for his work with the sometime Porcupine Tree progressive mastermind Steven Wilson but the biggest thing on AH's resume prior to his working with Wilson was his stint as keyman for one Miles Davis. Dropping the needle on Iron Curtain," this all becomes crystal clear as it's among the most satisfying three minutes of post-MD jazz/rock/funk to be found. ...

by John Kelman
Truly a musician's musician, Adam Holzman's career, visibility-wise, has waxed and waned over the keyboardist's thirty-year career, but he's never been less than busy. His time spent with Miles Davis, during the last years of the music icon's life, helped raise the masterful and broad-reaching keyboardist/producer's profile. Certainly, based on his work with jazz artists including Davis protégée Wallace Roney, Davis reissue producer/saxophonist Bob Belden, Grover Washington Jr. and Michel Petrucciani from 1989 to 2010, Holzman has kept plenty of ...

But while Adam Holzman continues to work with Wilson to this day--appearing on two subsequent studio albums, 2013's The Raven That Refused to Sing (And Other Stories and the recently released Hand. Cannot. Erase. (2015), ...
