Info for Bringin' It

Christian McBride hat das getan, was der Titel seines Big Bandalters seit Jahren verspricht: Bringin 'It. Die Veröffentlichung folgt dem Grammy preisgekrönten Debüt The Good Feeling aus 2011. Es zeigt seinen Status und sein Können als Allround-Entertainer. Christian McBride ist mehr als nur ein Bandleader: Er transzendiert diesen Titel auf etwas Kompletteres.

"Bringin' It" klingt ... jazzorchestral, groovig, boppend, funky und swingend, präsent gemixt – und zusammengehalten vom Ton eines der besten Bassisten seiner Generation." (Audio)

Christian McBride
When Philadelphia-born bassist/bandleader Christian McBride arrived in New York in 1989 as a Juilliard student, he was the “Godchild of the Groove” with unlimited potential.

Christian McBride is a master musician who has appeared on over 300 records. He is easily one of the most accomplished bass players alive, and his resume as a bandleader is also quite impressive. Join us at Dizzy’s Club Coca-Cola to experience New Jawn, which, translated from Philadelphian, could be described as McBride’s “new joint.” The quartet includes Josh Evans, Nasheet Waits and Marcus Strickland, musicians that are regularly featured at Jazz at Lincoln Center and all over the city both as bandleaders and as sidemen with some of jazz’s biggest names. Fans of McBride’s other small groups will surely love this ensemble, and its unusual two-horns, no-piano lineup gives it a unique flavor. With just bass and drums holding down the rhythm section, McBride and Waits provide as rich and driving a foundation as any group could hope for.

This album contains no booklet.
