The bold and expansive new album

Some Days Are Better explores an undiscovered treasure of rarely-heard works by Kenny Wheeler.

Halcyon is a personal statement for Dillingham who dedicates the album to his late father.

Today is the release date for drummer Mareike Wiening’s gorgeous new record Reveal, her third release on Greenleaf Music. 

Her band is nominated for Band of the Year.

Dave Sumner says, "This straight-ahead goodness of Mareike Wiening lands in that sweet spot where colorful, ruminative music kindles plenty of warmth—and the occasional burst of intense heat."

Phil Freeman says, "Weining goes for mood and atmosphere more often than hard-driving rhythms; like Max Roach."

Check out this list of playlists featuring tracks from Mareike's new album.

For your Friday listening pleasure.

Listen to an exclusive premiere of the track, "An Idea Is Unpredictable."

Mareike plays Munich and Mannheim with her European ensemble.

The title track is a ballad feature for saxophonist Rich Perry written by Wiening with his soulful sound in mind.
