Moutin Factory Quintet: Lucky People

Moutin Reunion Quartet: Soul Dancers
by John Kelman
Despite the reunion now nearly a decade old, there's nothing out of place or out of time about the vibrant Moutin Reunion Quartet.

Moutin Reunion Quartet: Sharp Turns
by Laurel Gross
Must it be pointed out that François and Louis Moutin are twins?

Moutin Reunion Quartet: Sharp Turns
by John Kelman

Moutin Reunion Quartet: Something Like Now
by Mark F. Turner
Those twins are at it again: producing some fine jazz.

Moutin Reunion Quartet: Red Moon
by AAJ Staff
The first thing that grabs you when you pick up Red Moon is the design of the case, a clever cardboard entity with a cool circular hole that can give you every phase of the moon when you rotate the disc inside. Spend a few seconds playing with that, and then get into the music. This ...
