Musician

Bright Dog Red (BDR), the alt-jazz ensemble that consistently “defies easy categorization” (Downbeat), celebrates 10 years of existence with the release of Never Would We. The album marks the group’s tenth release since forming in 2015 and eighth since signing with Ropeadope in 2018.

Never Would We epitomizes BDR’s “all-encompassing approach to modern-day jazz” (Blue in Green Radio, UK). That approach has evolved over the course of a decade, but “remains committed to blending a potpourri of styles” with “gripping narratives of sociopolitical struggle” and “proudly unanchored improvisation” (Downbeat).
