Don Scott: Out of Line
by John Kelman
Balancing the cerebral with the visceral is a challenge, especially in contemporary jazz that takes a more sophisticated approach to composition. Toronto-based guitarist Don Scott strikes a fine balance with Out of Line, a debut that combines the more oblique approach of artists like Kurt Rosenwinkel, David Binney and Dave Douglas with unshakable--albeit at times complex--grooves ...
Asen Doykin: Meandering Road
by Glenn Astarita
As a performer, Bulgarian-born pianist Asen Doykin is firmly entrenched within the New York area jazz circuit but has toured the world, spreading good cheer with his inventive fusion of Balkan melodies and the jazz idiom. From a piano trio standpoint, Doykin offers a bit of resplendency and variety to the roads previously traversed. By injecting ...

The Ian McDougall Big Band: No Passport Required
by Jack Bowers
Ian McDougall's name may be unfamiliar to you, but the accomplished composer/arranger/trombonist certainly needs no introduction to jazz fans in Canada, where his long and impressive résumé includes half a dozen albums under his own name, more than double that number as lead trombonist/soloist with Rob McConnell's peerless Boss Brass, and another three as leader of ...
Scott Sawyer: Go There
by John Barron
Guitarist Scott Sawyer is the kind of musician who displays his musical diversity like a badge of honor. The North Carolinian, who is probably best known for his work with vocalist Nnenna Freelon, showcases his electrified playing and composing on Go There, a dynamic release featuring drummer Kenny Soule, bassists Oteil Burbridge and Ron Brendle, organist/flutist ...
Michael Camacho: Just For You
by Michael P. Gladstone
Michael Camacho is, to most, a new name for jazz vocals. He immediately captures the attention with a cool, comfortable style that displays his knack for absorbing any number of styles. His opening original, “Just For You," allows him to perform a medium tempo scat which, technically, is nothing unusual or outstanding, but does suggest that ...
