Pianist /composer George Colligan is no longer “new on the scene” as Chuck Berg of JazzTimes referred to George several years ago but the rest of Berg’s remarks: “George Colligan is one of the brightest and most articulate pianists on today’s scene” holds true to this day.
On this latest album Colligan streamlined a quartet with the choice sidemen who he shares the same creative vibes.
Colligan’s previous release “Living or The City” (SCCD 31727) received four stars from DownBeat magazine with comments by John Murph, “…The trio brings plenty of subtle inventiveness and, more important, crisp euphoria to the fore…”
