Tal Wilkenfeld is a musical marvel; the kind of dynamic young talent whose fresh vision and uncanny intuition puts a whole new perspective on an age-old art form. Like a muse-lit meteor, Tal blazed onto the music scene as a teen, sitting in with the Allman Brothers within months of her 2006 arrival in New York City. By the end of 2007, she had released her acclaimed, instrumental debut, Transformation, and hit the road with Chick Corea. Tal went on to appear on A&E with Herbie Hancock and Wayne Shorter, then joined Jeff Beck’s world tour for what culminated in her global breakout moment

Tal Wilkenfeld: Cosmic Joke
by Mike Jacobs
Though Australian bass wunderkind Tal Wilkenfeld may have indeed left jazz behind in favor of a more singer/songwriter-type rock approach, the music she put forth on her debut album Transformation (Goldelux Productions, 2007) still leaves an impression and a hope she will one day return to it. Superlative writing and playing from the then 20-year-old and ...
Farewell to a Behind-the-Scenes Festival Legend, Monterey Jazz Festival at 66
by Josef Woodard
This year's model of the Monterey jazz festival, now up to its 66th annual, felt overall like one of the strongest and most balanced of the past decade.

by Doug Collette
Prior to the release of Love Remains, Australian-born Tal Wilkenfeld may have been best known for her talent on the bass in the company of Jeff Beck circa Live at Ronnie Scott's (Eagle Video, 2008). In the interim, however, she has been busy with stints playing for a disparate range of artists including Jackson Browne and ...
Top Ten Jazz Tracks for Surf Music
by Alan Bryson
The notion of jazz as surf music seems absurd at first blush, but it can work surprisingly well. Some time ago I learned this by happenstance while listening to an album by fusion guitarist Alex Machacek as I watched surf videos on YouTube. It was a true “ah ha" moment. Compared to the original soundtrack, Alex's ...
Top Ten Musicians Who Embody Cool
by Alan Bryson
America has produced some very cool things: jazz, rock, blues, country, hot rods, Hammond organs, and electric guitars. Another one of the coolest things is the language itself, brewed in the melting pot that is America. Like jazz, blues, and rock, American English itself can't be imagined without the influence of African Americans. “Hep," “hip," “funky," ...
