We're excited to announce and share with you new Linda Oh music. "Sun Pictures" is her second for Greenleaf after last year's "Initial Here." Linda has been busy since that release playing in Dave's Quintet, the Sound Prints Quintet with Dave and Joe Lovano, and a boatload of other projects. And it's from those travels and experiences that "Sun Pictures" came into focus — Linda calls the album "a set of musical postcards."
