MONTEREY JAZZ FESTIVAL “NIGHT CLUB” ON A SATURDAY AFTERNOON!
Dann Zinn’s newest recording is Shangri La. Zinn became interested in the idea of a bass-less trio and was inspired by haunting melodies in his head and the passion for creating a pure and accessible sound. He’s joined on this project by the world renowned drummer Peter Erskine and the phenomenally talented Chris Robinson on guitar. Erskine hailed it as one of his favorite recordings ever. The three blend their talents into a beautiful, playful sound, “it’s a game raiser all the way around. A stretching out, off the clock kind of date, this is not so easy jazz that is easy to take. A high water mark for sitting down jazz fans that like to have some swinging elements in the mix, it’s just plain fun by some real pros.” “Atmospherics and solid-state jams exist simultaneously, peace and war work in the same space, empty canvases can turn busy at a moment’s notice, and the line between the scripted and the spontaneous is often hard to read.” Good reviews of the album! Come check it out “live“… it should be adventurous, swinging and maybe even a bit funky.
