Marlene VerPlanck: The Mood I’m In
by C. Michael Bailey
Marlene VerPlanck has been recording since 1955. In round numbers, that is 60 years. She is a natural singer in the same way that Frank Sinatra, Roseanna Vitro, and Lyn Stanley are natural singers... they open their respective mouths and music just comes out. And, at the far end of this career, VerPlanck sounds very good. ...
Tony Adamo: Tony Adamo & The New York Crew Reviewed By Soultracks
By Chris Rizik In 2015, where an always-connected generation screams for attention through new, often contrived definitions of “cool” and surprisingly predictable proclamations of uniqueness, singer and spoken word artist Tony Adamo arrives seemingly from nowhere as a true anachronism: a performer who is authentically “cool” in a timeless, almost reckless way that almost no popular ...

by Dan Bilawsky
Saxophonist Dave Wilson cuts an imposing figure on the cover of There Was Never, his fourth album in total and his first on the Zoho Music imprint.

Samuel Torres Group: Forced Displacement
by Dan Bilawsky
When Chamber Music America awarded Colombian-born, New York-based percussionist Samuel Torres a New Jazz Works grant in 2012, the wheels started spinning in his mind.

Lou Volpe: Remembering Ol' Blue Eyes
by Edward Blanco
The year 2015 marks the 100th anniversary of Frank Sinatra's birth (December 12th 1915) and as expected, there have been many tributes to the Chairman of the Board but perhaps, none as unique as the instrumental homage by guitarist Lou Volpe on the splendid Remembering Ol' Blue Eyes: (Songs of Sinatra). Why? Because Volpe's finger-picking lyrical ...
Bill Payne/Eva Lindal/Carol Liebowitz: Payne Lindal Liebowitz

"Tony Adamo and the New York Crew" Reviewed By Ed Kopp Of Jazziz Magazine/Fall Issue
Reprinted from the Fall 2015 Issue of Jazziz Magazine “Hipspokenword” artist Tony Adamo comes across as a combination of Gil Scott Heron and Maynard G. Krebs—a bohemian wordsmith strongly influenced by Jack Kerouac and the ‘50s beat poets. Adamo’s fifth release features a crack all-star band playing hard bop behind the leader’s ultra-cool monologues, most of ...
