Mary LaRose & Ledhead:
Walking Woman |
|
 Mary LaRose is an
artist who champions the language of vocal jazz in the
post-bop era through her unique versions of
Lennon-McCartney’s “Blackbird” and Led Zeppelin’s
“Kashmir” (for four smooth-as-silk trombones!) and her
lyrical renderings of solos by Ornette Coleman, Eric
Dolphy, Anthony Braxton, and Charles Mingus.
Includes leading improvisers of New York’s
“downtown” scene — Jeff Lederer, reeds;
Cameron Brown, bass; Steve Swell, trombone;
Jamie Saft, organs, piano; and Matt Wilson, drums. |
“Mary LaRose is an intriguing
vocalist who sings original and classic vocalese with a
downtown edge.” —JazzTimes |
