Returning to New York in February of that year after kicking his heroin habit, Davis had also kicked his bebop fixation. What ...
Gil Evans Remembered: Gil Evans Remembered (Live At The Cutting Room, NYC)
by Jack Kenny
Few people have a better right to remember Gil Evans than these musicians. The serrated wail of this band enraptured, touched and torched the listeners.

Lisa Hilton: Lucky All Along

She has played alongside many of the biggies--Christian McBride, Antonio Sanchez, Nasheet Waits, Sean Jones, JD Allen--but finds the greatest comfort, harmony, and camaraderie among her long-standing rhythm mates: bassist Luques Curtis, drummer ...

Remembering Roy Haynes: Modern Jazz Giant
by Ian Patterson
When Roy Haynes sat down at the tiny kit on the stage of the Everyman Theatre, during the Guinness Cork Jazz Festival in 2005, he shook his head ruefully and said, “Man, I feel like a midget!" Rising above the audience laughter, somewhere in the depths of the theatre, a voice replied, “Roy, you're a giant!" ...
Angell & Crane: Angell & Crane

Montreal-based artists Simon Angell and Tommy Crane make what they call “jazz-adjacent improvised music." Angell plays bass and guitars, along with synths.
