#PEOPLE

STEPPIN' OUT
This stunning recording puts the killer Joe Jackson hit in a different musical light showing the versatile nature of Jackson’s masterpiece.
Randy Klein, electric keys and Alex Skolnick, guitar form one of the finest instrumental duos. Their success comes from a unique merger of their styles, Randy, pianist with songwriting, musical theatre and jazz background & Alex, thrasher heavy metal, guitar aficionado and jazz.
Running On Faith
On her latest release, two-time Grammy Award winning vocalist/pianist Diane Schuur shakes out new versions of songs for which she has a deep-rooted affection. Schuur arranges music by some of her favorite performers and songwriters; from Miles Davis to Percy Mayfield to Paul Simon, all with her distinctive, jazzy charm.
Vox Humana
On the heels of their Grammy nominated and 2019 Jazz Journalists Association Album of the Year Award winning critically acclaimed masterwork, West Side Story Reimagined, and in celebration of their 25th anniversary - drummer, percussionist, composer, arranger, bandleader, educator, Bobby Sanabria and his Multiverse Big Band return with their most ambitious work to date, VOX HUMANA.
Karen Mason And All That Jazz
Award-winning Broadway, Concert, and Cabaret Star Karen Mason shares her love of legendary songwriters John Kander and Fred Ebb (‘New York, New York’; All That Jazz’; ‘Cabaret’) in her new album ‘KAREN MASON AND ALL THAT JAZZ’. This collection highlights Mason’s vocal prowess, charisma, and overall versatility. Her storytelling is as stellar as her vocals.
Romantic Notions
Ann Kittredge’s 12-track romantic romp breathes fresh life to pop and country classics, with her unique storytelling, inventiveness and sublime vocals. Using her unwavering musical sensitivity and inventiveness, Ann crosses genres to bring fresh approaches to pop classics along with introducing a few originals.
Silent Boomer X
Adventurous vocalist Zack Foley turns his attention to standards on his third outing as a leader, Silent Boomer X. Foley goes all-in on standard repertoire in a non-standard way, departing from the conventional “crooner” sound and letting his tenor voice play a role traditionally filled by the saxophone. Foley proves himself a poised improviser with excellent time and taste, a fresh and pertinent take on vocal jazz in our time.
Please Dance For Me
It started with just a piano and a click track. Before long, Randy Klein had a hook-driven dance single on his hands, bursting to get out. You could call it EDM/Jazz, with a beat that won’t be denied and a bluesy, angular, jazz-infused piano sensibility, with an electric-keys eclecticism courtesy of special guest Kenny Keys. The alluring vocals you hear, imploring “please please dance for me” in mysterious tones? Go ahead, do as she asks! You know you want to. “Please Dance For Me.”
Black Swan Blues The Concept Album
Black Swan Blues - The Concept Album, for the new musical composed by Randy Klein, with book and lyrics by Joan Ross Sorkin, is a blues-infused score with memorable songs, promising to captivate audiences with its story of love, racial injustice, and redemption. Inspired by the story of the iconic ballet “Swan Lake” and set in the sultry ambiance of New Orleans, 1963. It is a giant step in the development of the musical that will energize listeners to clamor for a full production.
