Rachel Eckroth
Born:
In a recent WBGO interview, Simon Rentner proclaims ‘Pianist, singer and
composer Rachel Eckroth is more than a musical chameleon. Her shapeshifting is
so dramatic that there is no upper limit to her creativity.’ Fueled by curiosity,
preparation, and opportunity, Rachel has been on world stages as an artist and an
in-demand keyboardist for everyone from Rufus Wainwright to St. Vincent to NBC.
Her musical training was an inherent part of her upbringing. Born into a musical
family and being generously exposed to the arts gave Rachel a solid foundation in
the art of listening
I Dischi del 2025 secondo Ludovico Granvassu
by Ludovico Granvassu
Immortalare la bellezza e la varietà del jazz pubblicato nel 2025 attraverso una “top ten" appare tanto arduo, vano--e alla fine deludente--quanto cercare di fotografare un tramonto sulla costiera amalfitana usando una rudimentale fotocamera digitale e facendo un forellino sul copriobiettivo. Certo, una foto verrà scattata. Potrebbe persino dimostrare che eri lì, in quel momento, quando ...
Ludovico Granvassu's Garden Of Jazzy Delights 2025
by Ludovico Granvassu
Capturing the breathtaking beauty, range, and diversity of jazz released in 2025 through a list of “10 best albums" feels as challenging, vain--and ultimately disappointing--as trying to photograph the Grand Canyon at sunset by placing a pinhole in front of a rudimentary digital camera's lens. Sure, a picture will be taken. It might even prove you ...

by Katchie Cartwright
These are a few of my favorite things from 2025: songs of water and womb; music of light, shadow and illusion; strange and familiar tongues; beginnings and golden days; suns, moons and mysterious particles; liminality and light; equipoise, gratitude and pure aesthetic pleasure.

Rachel Eckroth & John Hadfield, featuring Petros Klampanis: Olhos de Gato
by Katchie Cartwright
Rachel Eckroth and John Hadfield were in Greece to record Speaking In Tongues (Adhyâropa Records, 2025). The freewheeling piano-drum duo found themselves with an extra day in Athens after finishing the recording, so they decided to enlist bassist Petros Klampanis for another little session, just for fun. No expectations, just a bit of free improvisation.
Olhos de Gato: John Hadfield and Friends
by Katchie Cartwright
In November, All About Jazz interviewed the prolific world-jazz percussionist John Hadfield. This edition of Caminhos do Jazz radio features Hadfield's latest single, a gorgeous rendition of Carla Bley's “Olhos de Gato" with pianist Rachel Eckroth and bassist Petros Klampanis (read review). The show also contains selections from a few of the many (100+) recordings in ...
John Hadfield: An Open Concept
by Katchie Cartwright
John Hadfield's sound is instantly recognizable, due in part to his unique drum kit, which reflects the musics he has studied and with which he continues to engage. Hadfield's formal degrees are in jazz (University of Nevada, Las Vegas) and Western classical music (University of Missouri, Kansas City), but he also studied frame drumming and world ...
