Kneebody: Kneebody
by John Kelman
When trumpeter Dave Douglas parted ways with RCA/Bluebird--which released his projects between 2000 and 2004--he created Greenleaf Music to allow him better control over both his art and its delivery. He also planned to bring exposure to other artists. The first non-Douglas release on the new label, the self-titled debut by Kneebody, fits perfectly with Douglas' ...
Dave Douglas: Keystone
