Rudy Royston's Flatbed Buggy

Click the play button to listen

Rudy Royston's latest project, Flatbed Buggy (Greenleaf Music), is an expertly crafted, chamber-like jazz ensemble with musical influences that range from blues and Americana to rock and gospel. Featuring a stellar line-up with Hank Roberts on cello, John Ellis on woodwinds, Gary Versace on accordion and Joe Martin on bass, the music of this project is dusty and airy, groovy and swinging, evoking countryside images and outdoor freshness.

A lover of all genres of music, Royston continues to put the beauty of the music before the display of his dazzling technique.

This mixtape features highlights from the discography of Rudy Royston, both as a leader and side-man (with the likes of Ben Allison, Michael Blake, Bill Frisell, Ron Miles, Rudy Linka, Steve Cardenas and Rudresh Mahanthappa) and his Flatbed Buggy partners in time.

Happy listening!
