"Tenorist
Doug Webb is steeped in the East Coast jazz vernacular of his
instrument from Coltrane on down. That abiding and encyclopedic
knowledge informs the date while also raising some provoking questions
about the tenacity of tradition and how best to reconcile it with
continued efforts at fresh artistic expression." - Dusted Magazine
Saxophonist
extraordinaire Doug Webb follows his bliss and heads towards the source
of his inspiration "Back East." Webb shifts his musical consciousness
into the next dimension and takes his all-star rhythm section of pianist
Peter Zak, bassist Ben Wolfe, and drummer Rudy Royston along to support
the intense melodicism and of the leader's powerful saxophone.
Featuring an amazing program of music and emotional performances, Webb
keeps everything moving straight ahead to insure that "Back East"
continues to boldly proclaim that he's certainly a saxophonist that
demands attention.
