Nick Maclean: Can You Hear Me?

Read "Can You Hear Me?" reviewed by Dan McClenaghan

by Dan McClenaghan

Pianist Nick Maclean plays in his comfort zones with his ensemble work in the funkified electric jazz group Snaggle, and in his New York City-style, Herbie Hancock-influenced modern jazz group, the Nick Maclean Quartet.
