Lolly Allen: Coming Home
by Jack Bowers
There was a time, and it wasn't that long ago, when women in jazz—apart from singers and the occasional pianist—were seen by many observers as unsolicited interlopers whose impact in what was essentially a male bastion could be no more than minimal at best. Needless to say that is no longer the case, as women's voices ...
Charlie Porter: Immigration Nation
by Paul Rauch
Jazz has always carried with it a social narrative with historical ebbs and flows reliant on the polarizing issues of its time.

It is thus entirely appropriate that the album was recorded (with an audience) in a ...

Seattle-based vocalist Carrie Wicks is back with her fourth effort on the Origin label, and while there are many similarities stylistically with her previous efforts, Reverie more draws from the original compositions of Wicks and her partners Ken Nottingham and Nick Allison. One of the commonalities between the recordings is Wicks' insight into putting ...
