Album Notes

This group of extraordinarily talented horn players has been gathering international acclaim from artists and critics alike, since 1991. Top session players all, members of the Hornheads have performed and/or recorded with artists such as Prince, Janet Jackson, Rod Stewart, Babyface, James Brown, Jimmy Jam, Aretha Franklin, Pedro Abrunhosa, Louie Bellson, Lenny Kravitz, Ray Charles, Maceo Parker, Sammy Davis Jr., Clark Terry , Dizzy Gillespie, Tony Bennett, Doc Severinsen, and many others.

While members of Prince and the NPG (1991-2000), the Hornheads recorded on more than 20 CDs and performed for over 2 million concert goers in 20 countries. Q Magazine, London, described them as a "peerless horn section...playing in bare brilliant syncopation, punching with staccato precision beyond science or synclavier. Prince splashes their insouciant versatility all over the set list."

"The Hornheads are terrific. They broke the place [Bellson Jazz Fest] up." -Louie Bellson - jazz legend

"Hornheads is a remarkable enterprise...the tracks are brilliant exhibits of how talented these people are...this is a CD U should all hear and appreciate!"
-The Continental - Rotterdam, Holland

I was introduced to this group recently by a fellow musician. I ordered two of the 3 by the 5 horn group. I listen to them constantly. Each time I listen I hear new things. These guys are fantastic. Not only are the ensemble writings unique, the jazz on all selections is out of sight. Congrats to the group and keep the recordings coming!!
