About this product
On Sanctuary, the gifted drummer and composer Matt Slocum continues his long-standing practice of documenting original music and arrangements, eight songlike pieces in total. It's his fourth recorded encounter with master pianist Gerald Clayton, a friend and musical partner for close to two decades, who stands out among a high-technical-bar generational peer group for applying his nuanced touch and precise articulation to telling stories that blend the dialects and syntaxes of the tradition and the here-and-now. It's Slocum's first recorded interaction with bass giant Larry Grenadier, a fixture on the international jazz scene for his 25-year association with Brad Mehldau Trio, as well as consequential engagements with Pat Metheny, Paul Motian, Charles Lloyd, Joshua Redman, and Mark Turner.

Vinyl LP pressing. Progressive rock bent with a considerable amount of rock 'n' roll gospel soul! Sanctuary's virtuosity is undeniable, and every song displays each member's considerable talents. The album is abundant with soaring and passionate vocal arrangements that are carried on high by the lively interplay of Norm Weinberg's percussive flurries as they weave their way through a tapestry of flutes, strings, and guitars. Deeply resonant keyboards set the foundation for the band's sound, and in fitting, albeit unsuspecting, fashion, it is Eric Bikales' flute playing that shepherds the listener through the album. Beginning with InchAll In My Dreams,Inch the flute's light and colorful timbre captures the ear, serving as a clarion call for all to follow and creating moments of majesty, as music and message seamlessly transform into one. Sanctuary's interpretations of Yes's InchTime And A WordInch and Edgar Winter's InchWinter's DreamInch are not mere covers. They are bright and bold musical statements, refusals to submit to the negativity of the times. Their unique take on these compositions, as well as their own, provides the kind of bright eyed anthems their generation's voice needed to compete against the backdrop of war and social upheaval dominating the headlines.
