Trio Treats
by Maurice Hogue
This episode is dominated by trios, perhaps the most popular format in jazz today. Steve Lehman's new The People I Love debuts (with the addition of the formidable pianist Craig Taborn), definitely a must-hear for 2019. Golden Valley Is Now reunites Taborn with Dave King and Reid Anderson (they all grew up together), while another threesome ...
Stephen Gauci / Sandy Ewen / Adam Lane / Kevin Shea: Live at the Bushwick Series
by Mark Corroto
There are certain musicians, let's call them axis musicians, who are always at the center of a scene or movement. Dave Rempis, William Parker and Ken Vandermark can consistently be found at the epicenter of a sound or scene. This is also true of saxophonist Stephen Gauci, the coordinator of a music series at the Bushwick ...
Chris Welcome: Beyond All Things
by Mark Corroto
Saxophonist Stephen Gauci has begun to document some of the weekly concerts he curates at the Bushwick Public House in Brooklyn, New York. Although brief, this session of a single, 29-minute track packs a satisfying punch to the solar plexus. Led by guitarist Chris Welcome (of the Lisa Mezzacappa Trio, David McDonnell Group and Weasel Walter), ...
Cooper-Moore: Catharsis and Creation in Community Spirit
by Jakob Baekgaard
It's tempting to think of a life in music as a linear story with a beginning, middle and end, because that's the way life is: we are born, we live, and then we die. In this narrative, one could assume there will be highs and lows and masterpieces might emerge out of a misty fog of ...

Stephen Gauci - Michael Bisio - Jeremy Carlstedt - Kenny Wessel: THUNK!
by AAJ Italy Staff
Ormai si è perso il conto dei jazzisti che si sono lasciati ispirare da Thelonious Monk, a volte confinando tutto nell'ortodossia di un mainstream ligio ai dettami scolastici, altre volte muovendosi in direzioni più avanguardistiche, come hanno fatto i pianisti John Stetch e Alex von Schlippenbach. Stephen Gauci appartiene ad una terza categoria, quella dei musicisti ...

To quote the great man, “You've been making the wrong mistakes."One band not making those ...
