DISCOVER AN OA2 ARTIST:
Joan Hickey
“Hickey remains one of the most appealing and distinctive pianists in the city...(she) produces gorgeously singing lines and unexpected harmonies. The gentility of her touch is matched by the intellectual accomplishment of her improvisation.”
Will Goble
“Mr. Goble delivers a gem...original and fresh...”
Victor Garcia
“...trumpeter Victor Garcia - one of Chicago's most exciting young musicians, equally adept at Latin music and pure jazz improvisation...”
Ben Markley Big Band
“...an upbeat take on the Big Band format, full of adept arrangements and intricate soloing...Markley fleshes the sound out, giving it a propulsive grandeur...”
Eternal Wind
“The performance was dramatic in the best way, pulling everyone into the raw, untamed world of the story.”
Alex Budman and the Contemporary Jazz Orchestra
“An incredible sound charged out of Pearl's. Horns. Lots of horns, in fact. I marched in and was met immediately with the glorious chaos that is the Contemporary Jazz Orchestra.”
Randy Halberstadt
“I love hearing Randy play. He has humor, drama, conviction, and a sense of purpose in his approach to music.”
Laura Welland
“I am truly enamored by Laura's virtuosity...Her sound resonates of classic jazz aura, while encompassing a fresh, crisp and sophisticated style.”
Charlie Apicella
“A deeply melodic guitarist along the lines of Grant Green. Apicella faithfully has sought to channel an era of American music when hard-bop and r&b reigned...But the guitarist still manages to keep things fresh.”
Mark Quint
“Mark Quint is a singer/songwriter that brings to mind other vocalists in the jazz realm such as Mark Murphy, Kurt Elling, Bob Dorough, Mose Allison, Dave Frishberg, and especially to this listener, Michael Franks.”
