After twenty years of playing together, the Billy Hart Quartet - with Mark Turner, Ethan Iverson and Ben Street - is distinguished by its stylistic openness. A drummer of enormous experience, who has played through many of jazz's idiomatic upheavals, Hart, now 83, advocates a `multi-directional' sound approach, and his younger confr?res respond accordingly, each piece subtly opening another door. The new album, Just, was recorded in New York's Sound On Sound Studios in December 2021.

DOVES return with their first new music in over four years and announce a new album for release in early 2025, reclaiming territory all their own with the stormy euphoria of Renegade.

In 2023, shortly after the unfortunate passing of Savoy Brown's founder & leader, "Kim Simmonds", Chambers teamed up with the Savoy Brown rhythm section consisting of Pat De Salvo on Bass, and Garnet Grimm on drums, recording Live From Daryl's House Club in 2024.

In 2020, Chick Corea—27-time GRAMMY® winner, National Endowment for the Arts Jazz Master, and one of the most iconic figures in jazz—hit the road with his powerhouse trio of Christian McBride and Brian Blade, and embarked on what would be his final tour.

Once considered a long-lost (and in most cases, complete unknown) studio recording from John Lee Hooker, 'The Standard School Broadcast Recordings' is the first commercial release of a rare 1973 fully electric blues band recording.

Fresh off their 2nd consecutive win for 'Jazz Group of the Year' in the DownBeat Readers Poll, Artemis returns with their third Blue Note album 'Arboresque'. Featuring a quintet line-up helmed by pianist and musical director Renee Rosnes, the band has been deemed 'a femme fatale supergroup' by NPR Music with a stellar line-up of pre-eminent jazz musicians: trumpeter Ingrid Jensen, saxophonist Nicole Glover, bassist Noriko Ueda, and drummer Allison Miller. Arboresque is a vibrant 8-song set that presents original compositions by each of the band members as well as arrangements of pieces by Wayne Shorter, Burt Bacharach, and Donald Brown.

Tears of Injustice is the acoustic version of Funeral For Justice. If Funeral for Justice was the sound of outrage, Tears of Injustice is the sound of grief. Mdou Moctar’s new album is Funeral for Justice completely re-recorded and rearranged for acoustic and traditional instruments.
