Instrumentalist Warren Wolf To Release Self-Titled Album on Aug. 16th, 2011
RELEASE SELF-TITLED DEBUT ALBUM ON
MACK AVENUE RECORDS – AUGUST 16
RISING STAR IS JOINED BY STELLAR LINEUP,
INCLUDING MENTOR CHRISTIAN MCBRIDE
It’s no exaggeration to state that the release of Warren Wolf, the eponymous debut album for Mack Avenue Records by Warren Wolf,
will make it as apparent to jazz fans as it already is to jazz insiders
that the 31-year-old vibraphonist is the next major voice on his
instrument. Joined by a unit of authoritative swingers (bassist Christian McBride, pianist Peter Martin, drummer Greg Hutchinson, alto and soprano saxophonist Tim Green, and, on two tracks, trumpeter Jeremy Pelt),
Wolf offers a ten-piece program that admirably represents his singular
blend of efflorescent chops, muscular attack, lyric sensibility,
harmonic acumen, encyclopedic knowledge of hardcore jazz vocabulary,
tireless groove and downright musicality. To continue, please click “MORE”!
