The Art of Elvin:
The
group is a tribute to Art Blakey and Elvin Jones who were both personal
and musical mentors of mine.The music is a collection of tunes that
were performed by both Art Blakey and/or Elvin Jones as well as some
original music. In the tradition of both Art and Elvin the music is hard
bop, gospel infused, hard swinging music that is designed to make one
feel good. It’s high energy as well as toe tapping.
