Brad Mehldau

• DIGIPACK EDITION

US pianist Brad Mehldau returns with his explorative, sometimes hard-hitting, often rhapsodic new album, Jacob’s Ladder, via Nonesuch. Featuring Mehldau’s label mates such as mandolin virtuoso Chris Thile, vocalist Cécile McLorin Salvant, drummer Mark Guiliana, singer/multi-instrumentalist Becca Stevens, NYC saxophonist Joel Frahm and others, the album very much picks up where his 2019 conceptual opus Finding Gabriel (GEN- 157300) left off, stretching into new territory beyond his formative Radiohead covers and the groove-fuelled improv of his duo project Mehliana - Mike Flynn (Jazzwise)
