Rich Halley 5: The Outlier
by Mark Corroto
After a string of impressive quartet recordings, saxophonist Rich Halley adds multi-instrumentalist Vinny Golia to the lineup for The Outlier. The band is the Rich Halley 5, not the Rich Halley 4 + 1. There is an important distinction here. This session gives the impression of a functioning quintet, not just a guest appearance.
Snarky Puppy at the Ogden Theater
by Geoff Anderson
Snarky Puppy Ogden Theater Denver, CO May 24, 2016 The Snarky Puppy website describes the group as a “quasi-collective."

Well, they don't ...
Anderson Ponty Band at the Boulder Theater

Jazz and Moral Theory: Swinging the Right Way
