Read "David Gibson: Propelling The Story Forward" reviewed by Dan Bilawsky


It's late morning on Sunday, January 17, 2016--a wintry New York day that will later see snow--and much of Brooklyn seems to be in a state of hibernation or hiding. There are few signs of life on the streets, but there's no shortage of action in the basement of the former Public School 9 Annex. That's ...

James Nadal's Best of 2015

Read "James Nadal's Best of 2015" reviewed by James Nadal


These selections start out heavy into the blues, in appreciation to those that are still playing and producing this important American art form.

Freddie Hendrix: Jersey Cat

Read "Jersey Cat" reviewed by James Nadal


Though the state of New Jersey has been the birthplace and residence of luminous jazz musicians, it has never garnered a reputation for being a jazz haven, arguably due to its proximity to New York City, where the action has always been. Trumpeter Freddie Hendrix is on a mission to change all that with Jersey Cat, ...

George Gee: Swing Makes You Happy!

Read "Swing Makes You Happy!" reviewed by Jack Bowers


The George Gee Swing Orchestra swings in the manner of Gee's friend and mentor, Count Basie, albeit on a somewhat smaller scale (Gee's group numbers only eleven, and that includes vocalists Hilary Gardner and John Dokes).

Billy Harper: A Life of Persistence and Improvisation

Read "Billy Harper: A Life of Persistence and Improvisation" reviewed by R.J. DeLuke


On stage, Billy Harper puts his lips to the tenor saxophone, stands relatively erect and sings through his horn; a strong, angular, muscular sound.

Over the last few years, a lot ...
