• Goldings/Bernstein/Stewart

    The 1905, 830 N Shaver St, Portland, OR 97227, USA

    Larry Goldings, Organ
    Peter Bernstein, Guitar
    Bill Stewart, Drums

    In the mid 1990s, The New York Times described ​Larry Goldings​, ​Peter Bernstein​, and ​Bill Stewart​ as "the best organ trio of the last decade." The trio, which has now been together for over 30 years, has been recognized for charting new ground, with its synergistic playing, and thoughtful music. They have over a dozen recordings, all of which display their distinctive sound, whether exploring the depths of jazz standards, or playing their own original compositions. Of their newest offering, ​Toy Tunes (Pirouet), Downbeat said, "The whole album subtly subverts organ-trio cliches, offering not chicken-shack party stomps but instead some hip after-hours atmospherics...4 stars"

  • Soul'd Out Presents SuperBlue: Kurt Elling and Charlie Hunter

    Mississippi Studios, 3939 N Mississippi Ave, Portland, OR 97227, USA

    GRAMMY® Award-winner Kurt Elling is without question today’s preeminent male jazz vocalist, renowned worldwide for his unparalleled virtuosity and flair for trailblazing artistic exploration. From his stunning reinvention of timeless standards to his own captivating original songcraft, the Chicago-based musician has fused his dazzling talents across a panoply of musical approaches, emblazoning each with signature imagination, insight, and emotional intelligence.

    Where many male jazz vocalists at this stage in a much vaunted career have tended to stick to the tried and true, Elling seems to be growing more ambitious and experimental with the passing of time, a tendency evidenced by his stunning new LP, SuperBlue: The Iridescent Spree. The followup to 2021’s remarkable SuperBlue, the album once again sees Elling joining forces with producer/guitarist Charlie Hunter and multi-instrumentalist duo drummer Corey Fonville and bassist-keyboardist DJ Harrison for a kaleidoscopic collection of new songs, surprising covers, and dynamic reinventions.
