The Jay Danley Band "Ethiojazz Volume 1" now on sale!
The Jay Danley Band
Jay Danley blends music from around the world with modern Jazz.
The band's debut release, "Ethiojazz Volume 1" is
influenced by the classic sounds of the "golden age"of Ethiopian music like Mulatu Astatke and Mahmoud Ahmed, as well as classic James Brown recordings from the early '70's, Afro-funk and Afro-Cuban music.
The new album shows the band's ability to flow from high energy dance music to sweet ballads and, most particularily, to capture the esscence of Ethiojazz.
The album's lineup of Elena Kapeleris and Chris Gale on saxes, Alexander Brown on trumpet, Max Senitt on drums, Tyler Emond on bass and Adam Hay on percussion is joined by brilliant guest stars Hilario Duran (piano), and Rich Brown (bass).
This album would not have been possible with the support of the Ontario Arts Council.
Here is the band doing a soundcheck at Hart House last year....
