Drew Gress: The Sky Inside
by John Kelman
Bassist Drew Gress returns with the same quintet with whom he's been recording since 2005's 7 Black Butterflies (Premonition).

Satoko Fujii Ma-Do: Time Stands Still
by Dan McClenaghan
In terms of CD releases, pianist Satoko Fujii passed the bandleader baton to her husband, trumpeter Natsuki Tamura, in 2012, resulting in two exceptional albums on the Libra Records label: the trumpet/piano duo outing, Muku, and Forever, from Tamura's European folk music-flavored Gato Libre group.

Take Five With Jon LaTona
by AAJ Staff
Meet Jon LaTona:Born and raised in Buffalo, NY. I loved jazz so much that I wanted to go to school for it. Now I have a debut record that I am extremely proud of. It was so thrilling to record because I was working with musicians that I grew up watching and listening to.
One Hour With Adam Duritz: Counting Crows
"Well I dreamt I saw you walking up a hillside in the snow. Casting shadows on the winter sky as you stood there, counting crows. One for sorrow, two for joy. Three for girls and four for boys. Five for silver, six for gold. Seven for a secret never to be told." - A Murder of ...

Keith Jarrett / Gary Peacock / Jack DeJohnette: Somewhere
by John Kelman
It's been four years since a recorded peep has been heard from pianist Keith Jarrett's Standards Trio, despite continuing to perform a few select dates each year. But even its last few ECM releases--2009's Yesterdays, 2007's My Foolish Heart and 2004's The Out-of-Towners--were all culled from a clearly fruitful 2001, making it well over a decade ...
Boris, Wang Li, Sexmob & Colin Stetson
by Martin Longley
Boris(le) Poisson RougeMay 6, 2013 It's hard to corral Boris into a metal-generic corner.
