💿 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 ...

Glenn Marais and the Mojo Train - Red, Hot and Blue - New Release Review

 I just had the opportunity to review the most recent release, Red, Hot and Blue, from Glenn Marais and the Mojo Train and it's a solid blues rocker. Opening with That's Where My Mojo's At, Glenn Marais on lead vocal and guitar set a great driving pace complimented by Manny DeGrandis on bass and vocal, Jesse Karwat on keys and vocals and Jeff Saulnier on drums and vocal. Solid opener. Love Denied, has really good form with a strolling approach under the intense vocals of Marais. Classic rock refrain by the Mojo Train and well stated guitar riffs by Marais add real dynamics to this radio ready track. Marais slips on his slide on It All Went Down, and with a stiff foot drum by Saulnier and well blended back vocals by MT, this track is sure to be a crowd favorite in concert. Wrapping the release is funk rocker, Professor Day, with an aggressive, bass/drum/guitar rhythm and hot sax work by Nick Begoeff. Marais and Karwat set out some tasty solo lines making this a hot closer.
