New band led by American pianist known from his albums on Blue Note and ECM.
With his new quartet, Aaron Parks returns to an acoustic format, after years of primarily touring with his genre-bending band Little Big. ‘There’s a book of unrecorded compositions of mine that I’ve been working on for some years now but have rarely performed outside of New York,’ he writes. ‘Music with something of a richer harmonic color palette, with rhythms ranging from the swinging to the meditative, and a lot of freedom to communicate and really improvise together as a band.’ He will perform this work together with Ben Solomon on tenor saxophone, Kanoa Mendenhall on bass, and RJ Miller on drums.
Aaron Parks made a lasting impression with his Blue Note debut Invisible Cinema at the age of 25, following three Blue Note releases with trumpeter Terence Blanchard. After that, the New York-based pianist and composer released many more albums, including two on ECM Records: a solo piano recording and a trio record featuring Billy Hart and Ben Street. Aaron Parks is also one of the founding members of James Farm, the jazz supergroup featuring star saxophonist Joshua Redman.
