Ralph Bowen: Dedicated
by Woodrow Wilkins
Many new releases seem to follow one stringent formula or another--whether to deliver cookie-cutter music to the masses, in hopes of getting noticed by commercial radio, or to adopt a certain trend, be it the traditional piano-led trio or covering standards. With that in mind, it's rarely, if ever, a bad thing when an artist or ...

Now unquestionably one of the better long-running groups on the jazz scene, Chris Potter's Underground puts forth its most consistent effort yet with its sophomore studio album, Ultrahang. Judging by how often the group tours, it's strange that this is only the Underground's third release. But taking into account the quality of Underground (Sunnyside, 2006), Follow ...
Jon Bremen: Lines
by Matthew Warnock
Lines is an intellectually engaging and emotionally stimulating release by L.A. based guitarist extraordinaire Jon Bremen. Bremen and his quintet perform with a very tight groove throughout, though they are just loose enough to allow each tune to ebb and flow into new and exciting directions. This strong group dynamic, coupled with compelling compositions and energetic ...
