Alyssa Allgood: Out Of The Blue
by Tyran Grillo
If Alyssa Allgood's debut EP Lady Bird made a splash, then Out of the Blue is a veritable deluge of inspired thinking.

Tuomo Uusitalo: Love Song
by Tyran Grillo
Pianist, composer, and educator Tuomo Uusitalo--born in Finland and, since 2012, a resident fixture of the New York City jazz scene--offers up something special in Love Song, his second album as leader. Special, not only because with it Uusitalo has rewritten his name into the ledger of modern jazz in flowing script, but also because he ...
Les Rhinoceros: Les Rhincéros III
by Tyran Grillo
Les Rhinocéros is one of the most engaging anomalies to come out of underground legend John Zorn's forever expanding circle in a long time. The trio of Michael Coltun (basses, electronics, and anything else he can get his hands on), Amit Peled (guitars, ditto), and Jonathan Burrier (drums & percussion) has been destroying and artfully rebuilding ...

by Tyran Grillo

by Tyran Grillo
Nik Bärtsch's Mobile Rubin Museum of Art New York, NY May 6, 2016 When is music a ritual? A relevant question in regard to pianist and composer Nik Bärtsch, one of few modern musicians to live out his worldview in every thought and action. His “Ronin" project laid fresh ...
Julian Julien: Terre II
by Tyran Grillo
With Terre II, percussionist and composer Julian Julien has given us a thing of cohesive beauty. Though classically veneered, it's a jazz album at heart, mixing two parts right brain for every part left. Joining him are Siegfried Canto (flute), Michaël Havard (soprano, tenor, and baritone saxophones), Rémi Dumoulin (bass clarinet), Guillaume Billaux (guitar), Médéric Collignon ...
Gilad Atzmon And The Orient House Ensemble: The Whistle Blower
by Tyran Grillo
The Whistle Blower is the eighth album from saxophonist Gilad Atzmon and his Orient House Ensemble, but sounds as fresh as the first. As one of the most fearless improvisers of the UK jazz scene, Atzmon has always worn his politics loudly on his sleeve, and here the story of an Israeli Jew who left home ...
Andrea Esperti: Roma-Rio
by Tyran Grillo
Putting on this record, you'd be forgiven for thinking that “Roma nun fa la stupida stasera" was a Brazilian jazz staple. But the song is of Italian vintage, like everything that follows on this atmospheric, laid-back album. Described by Swiss-based trombonist and bandleader Andrea Esperti as the “greatest hits of Italian song crashing Rio's Carnival" or, ...
