We blast into the 920th episode of Neon Jazz with the powerhouse duo of Eric Alexander & Vincent Herring, featuring music from their brand-new 2025 release Split Decision. From there, the journey takes us deep into the treasure chest of fresh sounds landing in the Neon Jazz mailbox—spotlighting Tatum Langley, Emma Hedrick, Randy Napoleon, Marc Seals, and Mike Pope. On a bittersweet note, we bid farewell to a towering figure who left his mark on jazz and beyond, the legendary Eddie Palmieri. We also shine a light on the iconic Headhunters as they gear up for a late August stop in Kansas City with a Q&A and live show at The Ship. And to round things out, we ride the luminous tones of vibraphonist Patricia Brennan, drawing from her stunning 2025 release Of the Near and Far. So tune in, turn it up, and dig the sounds—because this one's loaded with jazz fire and soul.
