Steve Davis, GETTIN’ It DONE

Steve Davis -][- GETTIN’ It DONE –Mp3– [Posi-Tone, 2012] –

Trombonist Steve Davis steps back into the spotlight with his latest record “Gettin’ It Done.” Composed of a fine programatic blend of Davis’s originals and new arrangements of a few classic tunes, the music swings to life in the able hands of his amazing band, featuring the collective talents of Mike DiRubbo, Larry Willis, Nat Reeves, Billy Williams and Josh Bruneau.

The joint is most certainly jumping and jazz fans and casual listeners will agree that Steve Davis latest release is most certainly “Gettin’ It Done.”

Dafnis Prieto -][- PROVERB TRIO – [Dafnis on Music, 2012 | Review] –

In the world of Latin Jazz, music aficionados thoroughly appreciate Dafnis Prieto for his influential cross-cultured beats, virtuoso drumming and enthralling composing skills. With his latest endeavor, the versatile composer scores the breathtaking “PROVERB TRIO.” This impressive gem launches a radically provocative repertoire of music which unmasks a totally anomalous direction for him in 2012.

According to Dafnis, this project is based in improvisation. The multifaceted Proverb Trio is fueled by creativity and embraces the concept of playing quality and unpredictable music. Amazingly this project took only six hours to complete. Continue reading →
