💿 ALBUM REVIEW: Leigh Pilzer - Keep Holding On

Image
Get ready to groove with Dr. Leigh Pilzer , the Washington, D.C. baritone sax powerhouse who proves that jazz is meant to be a living, breathing party, not a dusty museum piece. Described as a pure force of nature with a gruff, punchy, and assertive sound, Leigh brings a heavy dose of soulful grit to the stage. She has traded licks with the legendary Smithsonian Jazz Masterworks Orchestra and even arranged horns for local legends like Chuck Brown and Eva Cassidy , and now she is bringing that deep, soulful swagger front and center with her vibrant new album, Keep Holding On. This record is a masterclass in pure, undeniable groove, packed with plenty of attitude, low-end bark, and raw energy that blues fans will instantly appreciate. Keep Holding On strikes the perfect balance between paying respect to the jazz heritage and absolutely cutting loose, making it an essential, high-energy addition to your playlist.   🎵 LISTEN & SUPPORT THE ALBUM   Keep Holding On by Leigh ...

New Recording Release; Electric Shepherd - Review


I have just had the opportunity to listen to and am now attempting to review the new Electric Shepherd recording. I've seen descriptions of the cd that didn't make it seem very attractive but I've got to tell you... this is really cool. Now I'll say that with a caveat. I really have broad tastes. I've heard references to Pink Floyd, Led Zep, Airplane... you name it. I don't hear it. I hear a fresh new sound that has roots in the 60's SF sound with heavy echo and reverb but also embraces modern free form players like J Beck, Omar Rodriguez-Lopez, The Mars Volta, TU, and maybe with a twist of very early Santana rhythm in an sonic driven environment. This is really quite interesting and if you're up for an adventure...this may be your ticket!Tommy Anderson on bass, Sonny Pearce on drums and Mark Nelsen on guitar and vocals
