On to a new recording project! This time around, I chose to focus on Latin inspired rhythms. My goal is to always present a diverse listening experience and avoid similarities to previous albums. The players on this recording demonstrate great versatility and are very active in the LA music scene. With a focus on the contemporary side of music, this album represents a departure from my usual, traditional jazz format.

Enjoy this journey into fresh musical territory!
