Dayna Stephens is a brilliant composer, saxophonist and bandleader. He has been releasing an explosive series of recordings at his own label, Contagious Music. Dayna and Dave Douglas talk about his work going back about a decade and focus in on his new release, Pluto Juice, on which he primarily plays EWI, Electronic Wind Instrument. Not to be missed.

Subscribers can check out a bonus excerpt where Dave gives Dayna a blindfold test on Joe Henderson’s 1970 recording ‘at the Lighthouse.’ Listen here.
