Beat Kaestli: Beat Kaestli: Live in Europe
by C. Michael Bailey

Kaestli sneaks ...

Scott Clark 4tet: Bury My Heart
by Glenn Astarita
Richmond, VA., resident Scott Clark is a drummer who projects a lot of get-up-and-go during these jaunty progressive jazz works, inspired by his Native American ancestry. Hence, the 4tet and guest artists execute a set framed on Native American incidents largely based on hardships and trauma but Clark's manifesto also proffers hope. The six ...

Eden McAdam-Somer: My First Love Story
by Alberto Bazzurro
La texana (ma bostoniana di adozione) Eden McAdam-Somer è artista decisamente vulcanica: strumentista eccelsa, abile cantante, originale autrice, sempre un po' in bilico fra tradizione folk (decisamente più britannica, celtica, che americana, se non a macchia di leopardo) e classica.
