Musician

Nate Wooley

Born:

Nate Wooley (b. 1974) grew up in a Finnish-American fishing village in Oregon. He has spent the rest of his life trying musically to find a way back to the peace and quiet of that time by whole-heartedly embracing the space between complete absorption in sound and relative absence of the same. He began playing trumpet professionally at age 13 with his father, and after studying he moved to Colorado where he studied more with Ron Miles, Art Lande, Fred Hess, and improvisation master Jack Wright. His tenure with Jack began to break Nate out of self-imposed molds and into the sound world that he has embraced as his own. Nate currently resides in Jersey City, NJ and performs solo trumpet improvisations as well as with his trio Blue Collar with Steve Swell and Tatsuya Nakatani

Read "A Modicum Of The Blues" reviewed by Hrayr Attarian


An intrepid and groundbreaking saxophonist, Ivo Perelman excels in the company of like-minded artists. Thus, the majority of his work is either in duos or with small ensembles. The soulful A Modicum of the Blues is an entirely improvised five-movement suite featuring a quintet of long-standing collaborators. It is a masterful blend of fiery spontaneity and ...

Rempis / Adasiewicz / Corsano: Dial Up

Read "Dial Up" reviewed by Mark Corroto


Chicago has long been a magnet for creative musicians. Louis Armstrong left New Orleans for the Windy City in 1922, and Sun Ra arrived in 1945 to begin reshaping its musical landscape. Fast-forward to the 1990s, and Chicago welcomed saxophonist Dave Rempis, who quickly became a central force in the city's improvised-music scene. After emerging in ...

Sam Gill, Federico Calcagno, Scofield/Holland & Perelman/Anderson

Read "Sam Gill, Federico Calcagno, Scofield/Holland & Perelman/Anderson" reviewed by Maurice Hogue


Sydney Australia saxophonist Sam Gill's new Sensemaker with his band Coursed Waters is one of the best things I've heard this year, and there are a hell of a lot of excellent recordings, so definitely colour me impressed. Sam's music sounds like it's coming out of the Berlin-New York free jazz axis. Right there also is ...

Presenting Great Music: Adam Hopkins and Scott Clark of Out of Your Head Records

Read "Presenting Great Music: Adam Hopkins and Scott Clark of Out of Your Head Records" reviewed by Don Ball


It is difficult to make a living as a musician, especially as a jazz musician, and even more so as an avant-garde/free jazz musician. Venues are hard to come by, especially outside of major cities. The COVID pandemic made things worse, closing many of the few places that were available for live jazz. Even putting out ...

Mark Turner, Perelman/Wooley, O.N.E. & Herb Robertson

Read "Mark Turner, Perelman/Wooley, O.N.E. & Herb Robertson" reviewed by Maurice Hogue


Acclaimed saxophonist Mark Turner's new recording, Reflections on: The Autobiography of an Ex-Colored Man, will attract attention not only for the brilliant playing, but also for the very forthright topic of a bi-racial man able to “pass" as white. Turner used as his motivation the semi-fictional account written by James Weldon Johnson, a central figure of ...
