The new album is still a work in progress, but getting closer to the finish line. Originally, my ambitious hope was to have it ready for release months ago... but apparently excellence takes time! ;-D
I am very happy to announce that we have recorded a fantastic version of my original song "Come Home", with my quintet featuring Danny Janklow on sax, Josh Nelson on piano, Paul Kreibich on drums and Jordan Richards on bass.
A few songs on the album feature a larger ensemble adding Larry Koonse on guitar, Carl Saunders on trumpet, Scott Whitfield on trombone, Adam Schroder on bari, and Kendall Kaye on drums. Carl's original song "Lolly's Folly" features the full nine piece instrumentation arranged by pianist Tom Owens, who also plays on the album.
I'm very excited about our rendition of "Hippest Cat in Hollywood", co-arranged with Josh Nelson, which is taking the lead position as the first song in the lineup.
Other songs to be included are: "Mambo Inn", "Emily", "Gentle Rain", and a few more surprises!
I'm hoping for a release date within a few months. Stay tuned!
