Description
Critically acclaimed vocalist Jeff Baker returns with his 5th OA2 Records release, an alive and bristling set of originals and thoughtfully conceived pop and jazz standards.
Collaborating with some of the most influential and compelling jazz musicians in the world today - Brian Blade, Steve Wilson, Marquis Hill, Clark Sommers, Geof Bradfield, and Gregory Uhlmann - Baker and his co-producer/musical director, pianist Darrell Grant, present a provocative collection of original songs and arrangements based on text by writers such as Pablo Neruda, J.D. Salinger, A.A. Milne and Salvador Plascencia. Certainly, his most ambitious and personal recording yet.
"From all accounts, this charismatic crooner needs to be tracked closely. Mr. Baker has the potential to skyrocket to many accolade-coated triumphs." - JazzTrenzz
"The songs, the arrangements, the musicianship, the group dynamic, the singing is near perfection." - All About Jazz
