💿 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 ...

Ramon Tuto' - New artist review - Ellisjames - Guest contributer

In spite of an apparent lack of commercially released CDs, LPs or downloadable collections he seems to have picked up a fair number of loyal followers of his videos. Of the songs reviewed, one of my favorites is the “ Arriscat blues” improvisació sobre base amb alguna "derrapada".  This song is a relaxing dream like jam played over a pre-recorded backing track. Nocturn , "Llum", deixat anar ( http://youtu.be/GQSxGgLwXz8 ) and Sento Presència are slow Blues, similar in style displaying commendable finger work and each with a sobre backing track. Sento Presència is specifically a Blues in G minor. Senor Tutó is an interesting and prolific player who has wisely made use of the available and popular distribution channel. I look forward to more from him in the days to come!
