Jamie Ruben: Groove-O-Ly-O-Scene
by Florence Wetzel
Guitarist Jamie Ruben's Groove-O-Ly-O-Scene is an absolute treat for the ears. There's something deliciously mellow and laidback about this music, and at the risk of using a word that brings terror to many jazz fans, it is wonderfully smooth. Wait, don't stop reading! One dictionary defines “smooth" as “even and uninterrupted in flow or ...

Nancy Walker: New Hieroglyphics
by John Kelman
Amidst an overcrowded community, even the cream of the crop has difficulty getting heard beyond their own locales. A regular visitor to relatively nearby Ottawa, Toronto-based Nancy Walker is an Ottawa Jazz Festival regular as part of John Geggie's trio at the late night jam sessions--also participating on the bassist's recent Across the Sky (Plunge, 2010), ...
Billy Bang / Bill Cole: Duet
by Raul d'Gama Rose
Among the more daring moments in music is one of the last adventures that violinist Billy Bang shared with double reeds player, the venerable Bill Cole. The intense encounter took place on April 17, 2009 and was captured by Cole who released it on his own label in the winter of 2010. A collection of intriguing ...
Itai Kriss: The Shark
by Dan Bilawsky
New and/or notable flute voices in jazz don't seem to come around very often. While scores of saxophonists double on this instrument, very few players that enter the jazz trenches are pure flautists, through and through. When a musician makes the decision to focus solely on an instrument like the flute, they might be narrowing their ...

Bei the Fish: Just an Idea!?
by Nenad Georgievski
When Ray Davies of The Kinks fame was asked if he listens to all those new bands, he replied that he only listens to their third albums. A Band prepares for its first album all its life but only has months to make the second. The third, on the other hand, is crucial in determining whether ...
Pear: extemp’ore
by Mark Corroto
The improvising duo of Pear--keyboardist Nick Pierone and percussionist Rick Milne-- plays a fanciful game of six degrees of separation on extemp'ore. The opening “Dewey Miles" is a piece of cake, with the sampled voice of Miles Davis whispering “play what you hear" to some Betty, or maybe Jean-Pierre in the backseat. Pierone's piano ...
Carolyn Nelson: Come a Little Closer
by Chris M. Slawecki
Carolyn Nelson has one of those voices that might lead you to think you've heard her sing before. And you might have: although Come A Little Closer is her solo debut, Nelson has performed throughout the US and Canada plus two tours of Spain (she can sing in five languages), has appeared on the daytime TV ...
