Read "Earthshine" reviewed by Troy Dostert


On the first listen, it's easy to fall under the sway of the sweetness of Dan Bruce's silky guitar tone, only to miss the substance at the heart of his music.

Rob Luft: Riser

Read "Riser" reviewed by Roger Farbey


London-based guitarist Rob Luft, an alumnus of the National Youth Jazz Orchestra, reveals on tracks like the opener “Night Songs" a lightness and deftness of touch.
