Wayne Tucker : “The Cool” 2017 alumni

Today is the much overdue addition of Wayne Tucker [@wayneeverest] to this feature series!! I first met Wayne in 2017 as a recommended participant in my “The Cool” series. A masterful trumpet player, singer, and songwriter, Waynes most recent album “Wake up and See the Sun” has his talents on full display. When you need a break from the artificial sounds that swarm the airwaves, “Wake up and See the Sun” is an easy recommendation. Also, if you’re craving that live music fix, just check out his profile @wayneeverestfor upcoming show dates 📆🔊🎹🎶 🎺

Also, check out “The Cool ’17” and “The Cool ’19” to see more of the participants.

Adi Meyerson : “The Cool” 2017 alumni

I’m excited to feature Bassist Adi Meyerson [@adibop]. Another member from the 2017 roster of “The Cool”, Adi continues to amaze me. Her debut album “Where We Stand” brings out all the feels and has a firm place in my rotation. If my words and her inclusion on  #JazzTimes Top 40 jazz Albums of 2018 isn’t motivation enough to give Adi and her band a listen, here’s a few more words from #BobDoerschuk via @Downbeat_mag. “Adi Meyerson’s skills on acoustic bass are deep, her chops strong. Her instincts are not to show off, but to enhance the music and the talents of her colleagues. Compositions on her debut are extraordinary.” [Full write up HERE]😲 🔊🎹🎶 🎻

Make sure to see Adi live. Visit her website for show dates.

Dayramir Gonzalaz : “The Cool” 2017 alumni

With the restart of my “The Cool” portrait series, I’ll be shouting out a few from my first go around in 2017..➡️ Cuban pianist, Dayramir (DY-ruh-meer) Gonzalez was the first artist shot for the project and really provided a jolt of energy to an otherwise dud of a day.  The Havana born musician is a true showman and incredible musician. Dayramir’s first US solo release, “The Grand Concourse”, earned him a spot on JazzTimes.com Top 40 jazz Albums of 2018, as well as a 4.5/5 rating by Downbeat Magazine . Give @dayramirgonzalez  a follow and make sure to catch his show when he comes your way: Show Dates. In the meantime, you can find “The Grand Concourse” on your favorite streaming app! 🎹🎶
