Nick Finzer: The Chase
by Mark Sullivan
Trombonist Nick Finzer distinguishes himself as horn player, composer, and bandleader on this exciting sextet date. It's upbeat modern jazz just about all the way, aided by creative arranging. This is bop-based music, but Finzer avoids the trap of having all of the tunes follow the same head-solos-head format. There's plenty of solo space, but not ...

Gideon Van Gelder: Lighthouse
by Mark F. Turner

This time the program juxtaposes funky ostinato pieces alongside beautiful tone-poem-like selections drawn from a wellspring of influences that include Stevie Wonder, Prince, and Bjork. ...
Alex LoRe Trio: Dream House
by Dan Bilawsky
Greg Osby's Inner Circle Music label has played host to quite a few emerging saxophonists: baritone saxophonist Lauren Sevian's debut, alto saxophonist Logan Richardson's second date, and the first two records from Melissa Aldana, the winner of the 2013 Thelonious Monk International Jazz Saxophone Competition, all came out on this imprint. Now, the label is introducing ...
