Blend of acoustic, jazz, rock, and latin to forge a 21st century southwestern sound.
Eddy Nubine: A Cool Sax Christmas
This is saxophone quartet music at its best with strong chords and a jazzy sound. It is like being serenaded by saxophones.
Jay Leonhart, Bucky Pizzarelli, and John Bunch: A Visit With The Duke
Considered one of the great jazz trios, Bunch, Pizzarelli, and Leonhart combine to make great chamber jazz out of the extraordinary music of Duke Ellington and Billy Strayhorn.

Bill Carrothers: After Hours
Jazz trio ballads, harmonically extended. All slow, all the time. Think Shirley Horn without the vocals.
Rob Levit: Afterimage
Cutting-edge jazz quartet straight outta New York City with odd meters, dynamic melodies, Scofield freakiness and Frisell melodics. Ornette's progeny. Featuring saxophone legend Chris Cheek in some of his greatest work.
