Catching Drift

Featuring the music of Benny Benack III
Duration: 7:07

Featuring heavyweight solos from Benack and his band, Catching Drift is a studio track with an outsized, live show feel. The triple-threat Benack has assembled one of the best bands in New York for his forthcoming LP, and he absolutely unleashes them here on this original composition. “Catching Drift is midnight at Smalls,” explains Benack. “That New York energy. I knew I wanted to feature Chad Lefkowitz-Brown, because I knew it would be a great vehicle for him to go nuts. It’s one of my main vehicles for trumpet playing and instrumental music on the album.”

Benny Benack III: Third Time's The Charm

Read "Third Time's The Charm" reviewed by Jack Bowers


While it remains to be seen whether rising star Benny Benack III's third album as leader is a charm (that is up to the listener), it is definitely a charmer, with delightful turns by trumpeter (and vocalist) Benack and pianist Emmet Cohen complementing stellar performances by a number of well-known and talented guest artists.

Benny Benack III: Third Time's The Charm

Read "Third Time's The Charm" reviewed by Dan Bilawsky


Though the title of this third album from multihyphenate Benny Benack III might imply misfires with his first two go-rounds, the truth really runs contrary to that line of reasoning.
