A roaring big band recording celebrating Stan Kenton, recorded on the exact same date that Kenton did his first recording session at Capitol in the ‘40s!

• This recording is a tribute to a legendary figure in jazz, Stan Kenton. He maintained his orchestra by inventing new directions in music from 1941 to 1979, and he was synonymous with contemporary innovation, being an avid promoter of this new and different music.

• While Kenton kept an active road band, he also founded the Los Angeles Neophonic Orchestra in 1964. Led by Stan, the Neophonic Orchestra consisted of the top jazz and studio players and its mission was to perform new and innovative works. The Kim Richmond Concert Jazz Orchestra shares this mission.

• A jazz veteran who has been around for many years, Kim Richmond has played with Stan Kenton (1967), Clare Fischer (1968), Louie Bellson (1969-72), Lalo Schifrin (1979), Bob Florence (1979), Les Brown (1989), Bill Holman (1990), Vinny Golia (1991), Johnny Mandel, Chris Walden, and Clay Jenkins, among many others.

• He arranged professionally from the 1960s, for Schifrin, Buddy Rich, and Ernie Watts among others.

• Founded his Concert Jazz Orchestra in southern California to perform his own works, and has worked extensively as a session musician, arranger, director, and conductor for studios and popular musicians.

• Service to jazz radio and JazzWeek reporters.

• Service to writers, reviewers, and programmers.

• Email awareness blasts and targeted social networking awareness campaign.

• Ads with JazzTimes, DownBeat, and All About Jazz.

Two early Diana Krall albums showcase the superstar’s beginning days as a young, promising vocalist/pianist! Although Stepping Out is widely referred to as Krall’s debut album, three years prior she had worked with Vince Benedetti on a little-known album called Heartdrops. The music is a bluesy mix with cool jazz elements, featuring Krall on piano and vocals alongside Benedetti on trombone.

Her “official” debut Stepping Out features Krall performing in a small ensemble setting with bass player John Clayton and drummer Jeff Hamilton. Her mix of confidence and elegance is infectious as she sings songbook classics with her trademark spark, with SoundScans of nearly 258,000 copies!

Carsten Dahl Dreamchild Carsten Dahl, one of Scandinavia’s most sought-after pianists, presents a new, inspired album of improvisational jazz. Dreamchild is different from Dahl’s earlier works. With a meditative approach, his goal was to convey the childlike ability to completely immerse oneself in the moment. This is a more personal piece of work, so it is only natural that the only other contributors on the album are his own daughters: Anne Sofie Abildskov Dahl on violin and Celina Sørine Dahl on piano.

• In his previous work, Steven Lugerner has used various selections of Biblical text as raw material for his musical compositions. To do this, he extracts codes of numerals from these portions through a method called Gematria (a traditional Jewish system of assigning numerical value to a word or phrase). With these chains of numerals, Lugerner composes music through a plethora of aesthetic compositional decisions.

• For We Have Heard focuses on the biblical Book of Joshua, which begins after the death of Moses and continues until the death and burial of Joshua the prophet. The end result lives in the place between live acoustic music and composition based in the electronic tradition, striving to blend and blur what is live and improvised with what is pre-thought and composed.

Muddy Waters’ eldest son Mud Morganfield presents his unique brand of charismatic Chicago blues, a mix of Muddy’s epic songs and his own original material!

• Blessed with a commanding voice, alternately conveying deep emotional resonance and good old-fashioned testosterone-fuelled strut, Muddy Waters’ son Mud Morganfield lives up to the dauntingly big shoes he has been left to fill.

• Though his voice, zest, and swagger do at times summon up the ghost of his father to perfection, he stands as his own man, a popular festival and concert attraction on both sides of the Atlantic.

International superstars the Spin Doctors present a brand-new, all-out, blues-driven record with a loose, jam-oriented feel!

“Their sound hasn’t aged a bit: it still reflects fondness for the honky-tonk lurch of the Rolling Stones, the psychedelic reach of Jimi Hendrix and the rubberized funk of the Red Hot Chili Peppers.”

— Nate Chinen, New York Times • Spin Doctors have sold over five million CDs, been featured on the cover of Rolling Stone, and appeared on “David Letterman,” “Saturday Night Live,” “Sesame Street,” and at Woodstock ’94!

• With live performances at NPR, Good Day NY (FOX-TV), Rolling Stone, and more, members of the Spin Doctors celebrated the 20th anniversary of their smash hit “Pocket Full of Kryptonite” in 2011, when Epic/Legacy released a deluxe two-CD 20th Anniversary Edition, and they have been touring strong since!

• Outside PR company will handle TV promo.

• Radio promotion will cover blues and rock radio.

AS FEATURED BY USA TODAY MARCH 1, 2013: The Spin Doctors, one of the little alt-rock bands to break out big in the early ’90s, are back with a new album and tour. If The River Was Whiskey, set for release April 30, is described in a press release as “the blues album the band was always meant to make.” Lead singer Chris Barron elaborates, calling the collection of 10 original tunes a “ramshackle, broken carriage running down a cobblestone hill, with pots and pans, and a screaming baby.” Those curious about what that might sound like, exactly, can check out this five-song sampler exclusively on USA TODAY. They can also catch the band on tour starting May 2, when the Spin Doctors will perform in Virginia Beach. Additional concerts are scheduled in New York (May 7), Annapolis, Md. (May 8), Philadelphia (May 9) and at the Mohegan Sun Casino in Montville, Conn. (May 10), with more dates to be announced soon.

Award-winning composer/conductor/arranger Shelly Markham presents his first solo album in the adult contemporary vein of artists such as Michael Bublé and Peter Cincotti.

• Shelly Markham, who has had a long career as a composer from pop to theatre, has always wanted to release songs that celebrate being a certain pivotal age and not apologizing for it, but rather celebrating it!

• Here, he has enlisted the help of some wonderful lyricists including Judith Viorst, Lee Adams, Tom Toce, and Barry Kleinbort to write songs that help to paint a vivid picture in adult terms.

• All the songs are originals, with the exception of an entirely new version of “The Way We Were” with a second bridge seldom recorded, giving the song a whole new, darker edge.

• The songs are fiercely romantic, similar to albums released by artists like Josh Groban, with elements of artists from the ’60s and ’70s like Johnny Hartman or even Johnny Mathis.

• There is an incredible richness and depth to the sound of the Scottish Fiddle Orchestra when they come together to perform the “slow airs.” Each tune appeals to the emotions of the heart, invoking deep feelings for the events, both past and present, to which these tunes refer.

• Many of these works were composed and arranged by the late John Mason, MBE, founder, principle conductor, and musical director of the Scottish Fiddle Orchestra. For this reason, there can be no better tribute than to sit back, listen, and enter into the spirit of the album.

• This acclaimed series, which presents the golden years of modern Ethiopian music, has created ardent fans at NPR, All About Jazz, New York Times, Chicago Tribune, and many more.

• For a long time downplayed and deprived of any recognition whatsoever, Oromo music is one of the liveliest among Ethiopia’s musical traditions. This volume of the Ethiopiques pays tribute to Ali Birra, the man in whom Oromo music has irrepressibly affirmed itself since the 1960s.

• Birra presents a very unusual groove — quite different from gouragué, amhara or tigrigna rhythms — as well as a guitar style that would stand out anywhere in his relentless quest for identity.

• Mark Isaacs premiered Children’s Songs in 2012 at the Adelaide Festival in South Australia. In this pensive suite of short piano works, one of Australia’s most accomplished composers and pianists plunges us into a part of ourselves that we may have thought we’d lost forever.

• World-renowned pianist and conductor Vladimir Ashkenazy remarked, “This wonderful cycle is highly inventive and inspiring, accessible to children and adults alike. Very enjoyable and touching!”

• To compose the suite Isaacs drew upon various influences, most notably “Kinderszenen,” Schumann’s set of solo piano pieces from 1838. The work also nods to Mozart, Bartók, Debussy, Bach, Percy Grainger, and Alban Berg.
