Paris Jazz Underground, SELF-TITLED

Paris Jazz Underground -][- SELF-TITLED –Mp3– [Paris Jazz Underground Records, 2012]

The first release as a group, the “Paris Jazz Underground” (a collective of jazz composers and improvisers) was established in 2009 and comprises six of the most talented musicians on the current Paris jazz scene. Following the initiative of the “Brooklyn Jazz Underground” the group founded it’s own record label (which has given birth to nine other cds), performed extensively including a 2010 tour of Brazil and created a buzz in the specialized French media.

Karl Jannuska, THE HALFWAY TREE

Karl Jannuska -][- THE HALFWAY TREE –Mp3– [PJU Records, 2012] –

THE HALFWAY TREE, a Manitoba (Canada) landmark, is a prominent cottonwood tree that stands out on the horizon along Highway 1 between Brandon and Winnipeg. It is also the name of Karl Jannuska’s fourth cd as a leader, which features the beautiful tones of one of Canada’s most talented vocalists, Sienna Dahlen. A collaboration that began four years ago, the repertoire is entirely comprised of the leader’s original compositions while both Karl and Sienna contributed to the lyric writing.

The music sits at the crossroads between several styles representing Karl’s eclectic tastes all the while remaining melodic and groovy. The band includes: Karl Jannuska (drums, compositions, lyrics), Sienna Dahlen (voice, lyrics), Olivier Zanot (alto sax), Nicolas Kummert (tenor sax), Pierre Perchaud (guitars), Tony Paeleman (piano/ Fender Rhodes) & Andrew Downing (5 string cello). -[Album Notes | CDBaby]-
