Dave Bayles Trio: Live at the Uptowner
by Jack Bowers
Here's a rather unusual lineup for a trio: trumpet, bass and drums. Russ Johnson is the trumpeter, Clay Schaub the bassist, Dave Bayles the drummer and leader. That is rather like assembling the Gerry Mulligan quartet without inviting Mulligan. Bayles' trio was recorded live in February 2023 at the Uptowner nightclub in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, where it ...

That is exactly the vibe that Kansas City-based organist Chris Hazelton and ...

Accordingly, Hazelton crafts a nostalgic and contemporary experience that sets the ambience for introspection and contemplation. Joining Hazelton's ...
Paul Tynan & Aaron Lington: Bicoastal Collective: Chapter Six
