Tobias Gebb and Unit 7: Free At Last

New York-based drummer Tobias Gebb assembled a stellar cast for Free At Last. The format of Unit 7 follows the instrumentation tradition of Art Blakey 's Jazz Messengers. The three-horn frontline and three-man rhythm section allows this group to sound bigger than it is at times, while also having the flexibility to make things more intimate. Gebb covers plenty of stylistic ground over the course of...

INTERVIEW/PROFILE: Heard Evan Christopher Yet? (PT. 2)

Part one of Twin Cities-based writer Pamela Espeland's conversation with the kinetic New Orleans-based clarinetist Evan Christopher left off with the artist commenting on his jazz education in his native California and his earlier leanings towards perhaps--tongue-in-cheek--qualifying for a spot in Art Blakey's Jazz Messengers...

The State of Jazz

This NPR piece about a woman complaining that current jazz isn't exciting makes my head explode . That it's on NPR seems typical--the NPR demographic is precisely the same demographic as the average jazz fan--middle-aged, white, and affluent. And this demographic usually sees good jazz as something that stopped in 1964, when A Love Supreme got a little to crazy. They like retro-jazz, but how much Wynton...

Thursday Night Jazz

I don't post too much jazz here on The New Confusion, mostly focusing on hip-hop and the like, but in my continuing quest to understand modern soul and hip-hop through the lens of the musical traditions that they are informed by, I have often been inspired by certain classic and contemporary jazz artists. Here are a few songs that feel perfect for listening to at dusk on a cold winter Thursday: This...

Buddy's first 10 years alone are remarkable. In 1943 he recorded with Gene Krupa, then joined Tommy Dorsey and...
