August 2022: Higher Ground
by C. Michael Bailey
DO'A Higher Grounds Outside In Music 2022 Polymath composer, guitarist and pianist, DO'A, possesses an embarrassment of talent equal only to the smoky and concealed mystery surrounding her and her provocative moniker.

Carole Nelson: Zen And The Art Of Music Making
by Ian Patterson

ORD: Hemligheter på vägen

Drawing inspiration from Tomas Tranströmer, one of the giants of Scandinavian poetry, Swedish pianist Karin Johansson and her quintet ORD have forged a memorable and distinctive musical document.
