Andre Matos: Quare

Read "Quare" reviewed by Nic Jones


Quare is Portuguese-born/New York-resident guitarist André Matos' third album as a leader, and his first for saxophonist Greg Osby's Inner Circle Music label. The label might be the guitarist's natural musical home, as he offers a variation on the theme of the tradition every bit as singular as Osby's; this album could have been yet another ...

Esperanza Spalding: Chamber Music Society

Read "Chamber Music Society" reviewed by Eugene Holley, Jr.


The jazz world hasn't been the same ever since the twenty-something Esperanza Spalding--the Oregon-born, Texas-based bassist/singer/composer/educator--burst on the scene at the change of the century.

Andre Matos: Fantasies Realized

Read "Andre Matos: Fantasies Realized" reviewed by William Carey


There is no doubt that André Matos has chops to burn. Placed firmly in the tradition of John Abercrombie and Pat Martino, with a bit of Sonny Sharrock at moments, a lot of Berklee (College of Music) influence is readily apparent, but with a bit of headiness that also reflects the guitarist's time at the New ...

Yes, some of the titles are in Hebrew (translated as “The Builders," “I Believe" and “Chant" and a type of hummus) and ...

Leo Genovese: Unlocked

Read "Unlocked" reviewed by Phil DiPietro


Boston takes pride in it's stature as one of those old Yankee towns where it's tough to establish a foothold--a place where it takes three generations to break into an old neighborhood. While it's brimming with young jazz talent, the majority make the most of the locally rigorous musical pedagogy before making haste for ...
