Leaf Rapids - Citizen Alien - COMPACT DISCS [CD]

Lucky Stars' is one of those rare albums that can only come to light when a small group of seasoned players get together to work intuitively and create music from the heart. Listening to Keri on guitar and theremin and Devin on bass while Steve works his magic on most everything else except for drums - ably played throughout by Gary Craig - is like having a fireside seat at a tiny house concert. Intimate and assured, 'Lucky Stars' will certainly be one of 2015's musical highlights.

2CD includes photobook, postcard, lenticular card, artist letter and photocard.

Vinyl LP pressing. The world first learned of the incredible vocal artistry of Cécile McLorin Salvant when she won the prestigious 2010 Thelonious Monk International Jazz Competition. In just under the span of a decade she has evolved from a darling of jazz critics and fans, to a multi-GRAMMY® Award winner and a prescient, fearless voice in music today. 'The Window', an album of duets with the pianist Sullivan Fortner, explores and extends the tradition of the piano-vocal duo and it's expressive possibilities. With just Fortner's deft accompaniment to support McLorin Salvant, the two are free to improvise and rhapsodize, to play freely with time, harmony, melody and phrasing.
