Jason Moran: The Bandwagon

Read "The Bandwagon" reviewed by Mark F. Turner


This is not your typical Bandwagon... Jason Moran's Bandwagon forges a path of individuality that is in stark contrast to typical jazz piano trios. The artist is well known for his prodigious talent and his much-earned respect for being both unconventional and progressive in his approach. The new release is not an exception. While the true ...

Jason Moran: The Bandwagon

Read "The Bandwagon" reviewed by Rex  Butters


For his fifth Blue Note album, Jason Moran continues to build creative momentum. Once again, Moran stands as a conduit for a wide range of musical sources, from blues to classical to hip-hop to the Great American Songbook, often within the same song. His seemingly limitless vocabulary finds sympathetic support from two longtime collaborators, bassist Tarus ...

'The Bandwagon' Storms The Kennedy Center

Read "'The Bandwagon' Storms The Kennedy Center" reviewed by Franz A. Matzner


October 15, 2003 The Kennedy Center Washington, D.C. Virtually drowning in accolades, Jason Moran needs little introduction.

Jason Moran: The Bandwagon

Read "The Bandwagon" reviewed by Jay Collins


Without a doubt, Jason Moran is now at the forefront of so-called modern jazz. While he has his share of detractors, his stature is certainly deserved. Possessed with a fearless technique, an impressive pedigree (both in terms of his mentors and his former employers), a striking compositional style and adventurousness within the conventional framework of the ...

Jason Moran: The Bandwagon

Read "The Bandwagon" reviewed by Franz A. Matzner


Evaluating Jason Moran’s latest release, Bandwagon, feels as inconsequential as describing the relative worth of oceanic conditions or the comparative pleasures of desert vistas, mountainous landscapes, and tundra planes. For Moran’s music is as much a display of nature, and incorporating as varied a range of phenomena, as the above physical environments. Moran ...

A Fireside Chat With Jason Moran (2002)

Read "A Fireside Chat With Jason Moran (2002)" reviewed by AAJ Staff


I have always liked Jason Moran. If not his killing playing, his uncanny unwillingness to need to be the king of the playground. He is comfortable with his identity and so his approach is clear and ultimately his own. Now, I don't know much, but I have known since Oz's Further Ado, “JaMo" was to be ...
