DISCOVER AN ORIGIN ARTIST:
Charlie Ballantine
“In the vein of fellow guitarists like John Scofield, Bill Frisell and Julian Lage, Ballantine reconciles his background in jazz with the stylistic background of his instrument...the gratifying tonal and harmonic language of rock/roots with the groove, ambition and improvisational focus of a jazz musician.”
Ray LeVier
“Aside from being a great inspiration to me, Ray Levier is really a great drummer. Everyone take note.”
Chris Walden Big Band
“Chris Walden and his great band breathe vibrant new life into our beloved Big-Band tradition. Bravo, Chris... and keep the fires burning!”
Kiki Valera
“...one of the world's greatest exponents of the cuatro...Valera specializes in son, the infectious call-and-answer Cuban song form, but solos like a jazz guy.”
Phil Kelly
“Phil Kelly...has once again assembled an all-star collection of sidemen and soloists who can sight-read and improvise from some of the most complex charts in all Jazzdom...unquestionably the top arranger in the Northwest, and possibly the rest of the USA.”
Alon Farber Hagiga
“...a fantastic find...Such is Farber's brilliance as a songwriter and arranger—he takes the best from each of the traditions he calls upon, uniting a wide array of colors towards the common end of an exciting, celebratory music.”
Bobby Porcelli
“...a longtime Latin jazzman who has worked with Tito Puente and others in that world, yet he can turn around and play first rate unhyphenated jazz.”
Jack Perla
“A superb pianist...”
Josh Nelson
“Get on the ground level, and invest in this guy now; with music like this, he's going to the penthouse.”
Brian Gephart
“...one of the more personal sounds. A bluntly assertive soloist, he builds on the styles of Joe Henderson and Sonny Rollins in staying close to the ground, harmonically, and Von Freeman in his ever-present threat to torch mainstream convention.”
Dan Dean
“Dan Dean...is a phenomenal player.”
