Tenor saxophonist Rico Jones's debut recording, Bloodlines, is a thoughtful exploration of his Latino and indigenous heritage. Recorded live at Ornithology in Brooklyn, the album features Jones alongside guitarist Max Light, a fellow Denver native, and veteran musicians Joe Martin on bass and Nasheet Waits on drums.

In this episode of LINER NOTES, Jones reflects on his quest for the Divine in his music as well as the significant input from the friends and family who have shaped this musical journey.

This episode contains music from Rico Jones' Bloodlines (Giant Step Arts).
