While to many eyes and ears, the pandemic-era jazz
scene appears to be darkened or shut down, Posi-Tone
is here to assure listeners that we are "Still Doing Our
Thing." Breaking the sound barrier with an inspired
sense of purpose, rising star vibraphonist Behn Gillece
leads his worthy constituents on an exciting quartet
date of brilliant performances. The band features veterans
pianist Art Hirahara, bassist Boris Kozlov and
drummer Rudy Royston. From the opening salvo to the
last hurrah, the musical program remains melodically
straight forward, elegantly lyrical and clearly suggestive
of a modern jazz sensibility with hard-swinging highlights.
Featuring an amazing combination of talents and
an evocative collection of original compositions, "Still
Doing Our Thing" is engagingly entertaining throughout
and certain to deliver bright moments of intense delight
to jazz fans everywhere.
