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 ...

Rhythm Royale Records artist:Towner Galaher Organ Group - Brothers - New Release Review

-

 I just had the opportunity to review the most recent release, Brothers, from Towner Galaher Organ Group and it's quite good. Opening with title track, Brothers, Towner Galaher sets the rhythm with a funky snare, hi hat thing and Craig Handy on tenor sax builds the melody. With warm B3 by Jimmy Sanders, Marvin Horne on guitars and excellent bass contributions by Randy Monroe, this is a solid opener. The Diamond Chalice is one of my favorites on the release with it's easy pace and soulful melody by Handy. Sanders on Rhodes and thick B3 adds substantially to the depth of the track and Monroe's bass lines balanced with Galaher's tight drumming give the track a real substantial feel. Cahva Bite? weaves from a straight ahead groove and 4 time highlighted by cool percussion by Galaher. Ever present fluid lead lines by Handy and straight up soloing by Sanders and Horne make this another standout on the release. Wrapping the release is Seventh Heaven, a driving rocker with full B3 and somewhat funky lead by Sanders. Horne breaks loose on this one with a strong solo of his own making this a complete closer.
