FEATURED RELEASE
SOUND PRINTS -SCANDAL
Sound Prints, the innovative quintet co-led by saxophonist Joe Lovano and trumpeter Dave Douglas. On April 6, 2018, Greenleaf Music will release Scandal by Sound Prints.
“The defining trait of Sound Prints is the tangled crosstalk of its front line: an urbane, on-the-fly counterpoint brimming with crooked urgency, like a choice bit of dialogue in a David Mamet play.” – The New York Times
