Andrew Scott
Toronto native and Sackville recording artist Andrew Scott has become the standard bearer for the next generation of great Canadian jazz musicians. His many accomplishments include graduating from York University with a PhD in Musicology/ Ethnomusicology, but there is nothing academic about the way Andrew plays the guitar. His “clean, boppish style” has found him compared to everyone from Barney Kessel to Wes Montgomery. His fans include listeners the world over, including legendary musicians Gene DiNovi and George Benson. Geoff Chapman of The Toronto Star on Andrew's debut Sackville release: “The opening “This Could Be the Start of Something Big” could well be an omen for the talented Scott… Scott has been hiding his large light under a bushel but comes up trumps with this fine debut disc as a leader…Scott, who shows that driving, clean boppish Kessel style and has absorbed the best of Grant Green and Wes Montgomery…” Don Brown of Wholenote Magazine on Andrew's latest "Blue Mercer": “The leader’s playing is a delight
BARI-ed Alive: Put It There
by Pierre Giroux
In an era teeming with standard horn sections and predictable lineups, BARI-ed Alive's Put It There stands out as a bold and sonorous declaration of individuality. The sextet's audacious choice to feature three baritone saxophones--masterfully played by Alex Dean, Shirantha Beddage, and Chris Gale--creates a sound that is muscular, bottom-heavy, and perhaps surprisingly buoyant. Rounded out ...

Ed Cherry: Are We There Yet?
by Andrew Scott
In debates between Kenneth Miller, Richard Dawkins, and the late Stephen Jay Gould, the “stay in your lane" boundaries that separate science from theology/philosophy become particularly porous, revealing the frequency with which individuals intellectually “drift" in order to hold onto seemingly contradictory opinions of truth (empirical, scientific) and belief. Jazz, no less an ideology, ...

The Andrew Scott Quartet: The Brightest Minute
by Jack Bowers
To say that guitarist Andrew Scott's new CD, The Brightest Minute, leans backward as much as it does forward isn't a slam, it's a compliment. It's always a pleasure to hear a musician who salutes the prowess of his predecessors--in this case, masters like Billy Bauer, Johnny Smith, Tal Farlow, Barney Kessel, Jim Hall and others--and ...

In spite of the club's closing in 2014, the label remains ...
