DIGIPACK EDITION

Trumpeter Jonathan Finlayson’s 3 Times Round is his first release since the widely-lauded Moving Still, which was named one of the top albums of 2016 by the New York Times and the best release of the year by PopMatters, who called Finlayson ”among the most exciting and puckish composers in the music today.” Relentlessly innovative and thoroughly uncompromising, Finlayson is the first-call for musicians seeking a trumpeter who is able to negotiate the most complex musical material yet bring his own sense of individuality and verve. These includes a stunning list of cutting-edge artist such as Henry Threadgill, Muhal Richard Abrams, Steve Lehman, Mary Halvorson and, of course, Steve Coleman, with whom Finlayson has played with for the last 18 years. Just in 2018, Finlayson appears on two other important Pi releases: Henry Threadgill’s 14 or 15 Kestra: Agg – Dirt… And More Dirt and Steve Coleman’s Live at the Village Vanguard, Vol. I (The Embedded Sets), further evidence of his standing at the leading edge of jazz.
