FORQ: Four
by Mike Jacobs
Forq has come a long way. Since Keyboardist Henry Hey and (Snarky Puppy) bassist Michael League started the quartet with drummer Jason JT Thomas and guitarist Adam Rogers, Forq has gone through some crucial personnel changes. Rogers left after the first album and was replaced by Snarky Puppy guitarist Chris McQueen. Recording two more ...
Barlast: Svanvik
by Anthony Shaw
This second album from Barlast, a self-proclaimed folk-jazz quartet from Helsinki, continues much in the vein of their first, Ihantalo released in 2017. Where Ihantalo featured only tunes from bassist Philip Holm, the current album includes five tunes written by the whole band, as well as five more of Holm's, and is sonically more experimental.
Manu Katche: the scOpe
by Chris M. Slawecki
Manu Katché's tenth album as a leader, the ScOpe encompasses modern and ancient music, tribal and global music, and illustrates why he is not only one of the world's best drummers, but much more. Katché entered the Paris Conservatory as a pianist but switched to percussion as his studies progressed; his mature style eventually ...

Samuel Torres: Alegria
by Dan Bilawsky
After delivering a politically-pointed statement in the form of Forced Displacement (Zoho Music, 2015), Colombian percussionist Samuel Torres most certainly could've doubled-down in that direction. There's no shortage of political turmoil across the globe these days, so that move would've been completely understandable. But, as Torres clearly understands, there's something to be said for the power ...

Bria Skonberg: Nothing Never Happens
by Mike Jurkovic
In what can only be considered a wide, darker turn from her five previous recordings which swayed and swung in more traditional, pre-bop, jazz settings, award-winning trumpeter-vocalist-composer Bria Skonberg takes us through the dark night of her heart and the national soul on the fraught, yet impossible-not-to-listen-to Nothing Never Happens. Swamped as we all ...
Felipe Salles: The Lullaby Project
by Angelo Leonardi
Nato a São Paulo, il compositore e bandleader Felipe Salles vive negli Stati Uniti dal 1995 e insegna dal 2010 all'università di Amherst, Massachusetts. Come molti brasiliani della sua generazione fonde i contenuti musicali assorbiti nell'infanzia con le molteplici influenze ricevute da adulto nell'attività professionale. Ha pubblicato già vari album, dimostrandosi artista eclettico che non ...
Accent: Christmas All the Way
by Nicholas F. Mondello
A rhetorical question: what makes a great Christmas album? We know all or most of the chestnuts, both commercial and religious. The Drummer Boy flams, someone's dreaming white, and another will be home in their dreams. The annual marathon Yuletide programs rely heavily on the tried and true with an occasional novelty thrown in. Classical purists ...
Gary Alesbrook: The Stories We Tell Ourselves
by Dr. Judith Schlesinger
It's hard to believe this is only trumpeter Gary Alesbrook's second record under his own name. Like Venus emerging fully-formed from the head of Zeus, Alesbrook's tasteful proficiency is truly startling until you realize it was honed outside of jazz, with years of busy sideman efforts in other types of music. Another surprise is ...
