Carmen Rothwell: The Art of Intuition
by Paul Rauch
Seattle, a city synonymous with alternative rock, has long sustained a provincial jazz culture, without a signature sound, but with an openness to innovative, progressive invention.

Jared Hall: Hallways
by Paul Rauch
It has been a long road for trumpeter/composer Jared Hall.

Rick Mandyck: The Return From Now
by Paul Rauch
It was a cold Tuesday evening the last week of December. 2016 was mercifully coming to a close, this evening, a final chorus of a long blues blown soulfully, and mournfully into the night. I sat at the bar at Seattle's storied jazz spot, Tula's, in eager anticipation of the evening's performance of a quartet led ...

His new Origin Records ...
Samantha Boshnack: A Musical World Without Boundaries
by Paul Rauch
The city of Seattle has an eclectic relationship with jazz historically, in terms of innovation and embracing the notion of music without boundaries, of musical communities interacting and supporting each other. Samantha Boshnack fits perfectly into that musical paradigm. Whether writing and performing with her 14 piece ensemble B'shnorkestra, or in a quintet setting, Boshnack has ...
Samantha Boshnack: B'shnorkestra: Global Concertos

Jazz music has an eclectic relationship with the city of Seattle, from the Jackson Street days during and following prohibition, through the often brilliant scene today, the musical current has burned brightly in terms of innovation, and the freedom to express one's musical identity freely.
