Changes Over Time

Excellent work from pianist Jon Davis – a player with a really wonderful touch on the keys – an attack that comes on strong, but then lays back to let the echo of every single note mean a lot – even when Jon’s moving at a mighty nice clip! The style is great – not unfamiliar, maybe a bit like early Steve Kuhn, but very fresh in the hands of Davis – and spun out over a fair bit of original tunes on the set, which further showcase Jon’s voice as a writer – and let us know that he’s definitely an artist to watch in coming years. The group features Ugonna Okegwo on bass and Jochen Rueckert on drums – and titles include “Jazz Vampire”, “Just For Fun”, “Las Olas”, “Changes Over Time”, “Waltz For U”, and “It’s For Free”.
