July 10th Tickets on Sale! Daniel Bennett CD Release at Metropolitan Room in Manhattan!

Daniel Bennett, the marvelously original sax/flute/clarinet player, whose album Peace & Stability Among Bears  we reviewed in November, 2011 is set to release a new CD, Clockhead Goes to Camp  on Wednesday, July 10th. The release party will be in the Metropolitan Room in Manhattan. Daniel Bennett, along with his group breath a fresh air into jazz drawing inspiration from folk music and then presenting it in a minimalist ensemble that, despite the avoidance of excess, still manages to explore complex musical ideas and themes. The result is a marvelously hypnotic musical trip that will speak to the jazz enthusiast as well as the casual listener.  I haven’t heard the new album yet, but knowing Bennett’s knack for writing irresistible hooks on the alto, flute or clarinet, which are also daring musically in the use of polyphony and complex drum rhythms and interplay with the other pieces,  it’s bound to be a fun piece of work. Get your tickets early, and if you can’t attend in person, well pick up the CD for a treat.
