Anthony Stanco - In the Groove: Live at the Alluvion - COMPACT DISCS [CD]

Picking up where 2024's InchStanco's TimeInch left off, trumpeter Anthony Stanco's 3rd album resides in the gritty, soulful world of hard bop. Captured live at Traverse City's The Alluvion-a space brimming with energy & history-the album channels the immediacy and fire of a great night on the bandstand, with the compositions drawing inspiration from the waters surrounding the town and echoing the spirit of the venue itself. Pianist and club founder Jeff Haas plays a pivotal role in the project, contributing both an original composition and the album's liner notes. Visual artist Lisa Flahive adds another layer to the experience, painting the album's cover live during the performance. Rooted in the traditions of Cannonball Adderley's live sessions and the grooving pulse of Blue Note records of the '60s, guitarist Randy Napoleon, pianist Xavier Davis, bassist John Webber, and drummer Joe Farnsworth make InchIn the GrooveInch into both a tribute to and a continuation of that lineage-bold, joyful, and unapologetically alive.
