Danny Lerman Bio
The fact that Danny Lerman's current album title Meow Baby comes from a line in an episode of Kojak proves that saxophonist Danny Lerman knows how to have fun. He also knows retro cool when he sees it. Lerman took a page from the 1970s when recording his third album, Meow Baby, on Sugar Whiskey Records, his label, distributed by Lightyear Entertainment/EMI. Danny adopted old school sensibilities by utilizing live musicians and having a hand in writing all the new compositions for the disc. Tal Bergman, who worked on Lermans debut album, produced ten songs on Meow Baby and a few tracks were produced by urban-jazz icon Norman Connors. Radio programmers are already whetting their appetite for the CD with Gotcha!, a deep-pocketed groove that bursts into a chorus as sweet as one of Kojaks Tootsie Pops.
Since his last album release, Lerman traveled and performed around the world, including Turkey, Israel, Holland, South Africa, Venezuela and Mexico. He brought influences and musicians from the countries he visited into the studio when recording Meow Baby. While the tracks swing towards contemporary jazz, urban and adult pop, there are also traces of World Music, Middle Eastern, Latin and South African rhythms. The South Bend, Indiana native, who plays alto and soprano sax, recorded the majority of the collection in Los Angeles where he was joined by Randy Brecker, Hubert Laws, Howard Hewett, Paul Jackson Jr., Bobby Lyle, and Munyungo Jackson. Bergman, who played drums on records by Rod Stewart, Billy Idol, Loreena McKennitt, Herb Alpert, and Chaka Khan, was behind the drum kit on most of the album.
Tal brought infectious rhythms that were both exciting and exotic. His strong rhythmic influences made the tracks spicy, explained Lerman. I wanted this record to be a glimpse into my world, including some of the friends that Ive made in my travels. I put both myself and the places Ive been into the music. Theres definitely variety on this record; you dont know whats coming next. Ive found some great players from all parts of the world and they brought their unique perspective to the album.
Lermans a riveting performer who has shared concert bills with Herbie Hancock, Sergio Mendes, Richard Elliot, David Benoit, Eric Marienthal and the Ghetto Boys. When hes off the road, Lerman occasionally performs free concerts at nursing homes in his hometown of South Bend, Indiana.
Lerman composed and recorded his first CD, Do you Feel? in South Bend, Indiana and built his name touring the Midwest. At North Texas they didnt teach me how to dance or front a band. I learned on the job, at least fronting the band.
Danny partnered with producer Tal Bergman for his next CD, Danny's Island, performing and writing with bassist, Oskar Cartaya and flutist, Dave Valentine The CD Dannys Island, reached the top 20 on the Contemporary Jazz charts of record industry publication Radio & Records, and the single, Take My Breath Away, reached the #1 position on the playlist of WGCI, Chicago's number one urban music station. Danny's compositions are also featured in the movie soundtracks Wedding Bell Blues, and Kill Me Later. As a special treat, Take My Breath Away, will be re-issued as a bonus track on Meow Baby. Tony Bennett described Danny Lerman most aptly, Beautiful Music, Man!
