John Ellis & Double-Wide: Puppet Mischief

Read "Puppet Mischief" reviewed by Chris May


Brooklyn-based saxophonist John Ellis is a player who, whenever he puts his horn in his mouth, makes it seem like retro-modern is the only show in town. His style is part classic soul and funk, part modern jam band groove and part freewheeling improvisation. He has a particular affinity with New Orleans roots music and also ...

Garage a Trois: Power Patriot

Read "Power Patriot" reviewed by Chris Kompanek


The lines between jazz and rock can become blurred inside of a really good groove. That's exactly what happens on Garage a Trois' Power Patriot.

Garage A Trois: Power Patriot

Read "Power Patriot" reviewed by Mark Corroto


The music of Garage A Trois is located somewhere on the map between do-it-yourself punk fusion and hip-hop jamband. The current lineup replaces guitarist Charlie Hunter, heard on Outre Mer (Telarc, 2006) and Emphasizer (Tone Cool, 2003), with keyboardist Marco Benevento. The effect is to push the music more towards saxophonist Skerik's prior efforts in the ...
