Gabriel Espinosa/Hendrik Meurkens: Samba Little Samba

by Dan Bilawsky
The hundredth release on the Zoho imprint was the aptly-titled Celebrando (Zoho Music, 2012)--the debut collaboration between Gabriel Espinosa and Hendrik Meurkens. This follow-up date, arriving a little more than two years later, is cut from the same musical cloth, though a few minor personnel changes and role adjustments give this one its own identity.

Donna Deussen: High Wire and On the Street Where You Live

by C. Michael Bailey
More telling than her Berklee College of Music magna cum laude degree is singer Donna Deussen's private instruction under Tierney Sutton. Sutton is second only to Cassandra Wilson when considering the seismic styleistic shifts in jazz vocals over the past 20 years. Deussen integrates her instruction intelligently, avoiding imitation. Her lessons learned are made her own. ...
Chris Walden Big Band: Full-On!

by Jack Bowers
To say that Chris Walden's instrumental compositions and arrangements are the best part of his new big-band album, Full-On!, is not to dismiss the rest as less than adequate. Walden's charts for the ensemble, on the other hand, do provide much of the excitement in a session that is otherwise dominated by vocals (seven in all), ...

Chris Walden Big Band: Full-On!

by Dan Bilawsky
It's been a while since the jazz world has seen a release from this group.

Tierney Sutton: Paris Sessions

by Dan Bilawsky
Think you know every aspect of Tierney Sutton's artistic persona? Think again. Hearing the Paris Sessions is to hear Sutton anew. Sure, it's that same one-of-a-kind voice, but there's no Tierney Sutton Band here, incredibly novel arrangements aren't a priority on this one, and there's no grand umbrella theme to contend with. This is simply a ...
Jazz Musician of the Day: Tierney Sutton

All About Jazz is celebrating Tierney Sutton's birthday today! In a world of overnight sensations, jazz vocalist Tierney Sutton’s success has come from the road less traveled.

Nicky Schrire: On Songs, Spaces And Places

by Dan Bilawsky
What defines power? That's a tough question to answer in general, and an even harder one to figure out when it comes to the world of music. For in music, a whisper may carry greater weight than a roar, an honest gesture can outdo a demonstration of brute strength and technique, and a direct message to ...
Christian Jacob: Beautiful Jazz: A Private Concert

by Dan Bilawsky
There was a time when pianist Christian Jacob thought he'd be making his mark as a classical pianist. That's perfectly understandable considering the fact that he was playing piano at age four and studying at the Metz conservatory at age six. By the time he was in college, studying at the Paris Conservatory, he was winning ...
