In a sideways step from the music he is most commonly associated with, award-winning and internationally acclaimed pianist, drummer and composer Gary Husband reveals the more contemplative and lyrical side of his far-reaching musical expression in his latest release Songs of Love & Solace. Here he explores in a solo piano setting the poignancy and beauty of a collection of love songs and themes that have powerfully resonated within his affection since childhood. Consisting predominantly of his own highly individual arrangements, the album presents Gary’s deeply thoughtful interpretations of an eclectic selection of tunes ranging from familiar jazz standards and popular hits, to a Brazilian classic and a Husband original - all delivered with great sensitivity, virtuosity and outstanding harmonic invention.

Taranczewski - LOM (2024) [Official Digital Download 24/96] Vinyl & HR

LOM, the second album by the Taranczewski trio featuring pianist Olaf Taranczewski, bassist Jean-Philippe Wadle, and drummer Benedikt Stehle, stands in immediate relation to its remarkable predecessor "When I Was." Because in every aspect, LOM is the antithesis of "When I Was," conceptually, in terms of playfulness, mood, and sound. Yet, the trio does not diminish its debut in any way, but rather – on the contrary – remains unmistakably recognizable with its signature and impressively rounds off its spectrum.

All of these were released on Origin Records.

Contemporary Jazz | Label: Ubuntu Music, Official Digital Download

The wide tapestry of sounds on 'Inside Out' reflects many of Richard's musical influences as a pianist. He has always strived to find his own voice when it comes to composition and improvisation, and this comes into focus with the music recorded here. The album features Richard's original compositions and two arrangements of tunes penned by the legendary Carla Bley. The album blends intricate melodies, evocative harmonies and energetic grooves alongside pieces where space becomes the sonic focus. When the band plays as a trio there is always a sense of exploration and freedom within the music and this feeling is what makes this band, and this record, a special one.
