Pianist Michael Wolff's considerable talents have been heard and seen with Cal Tjader, Sonny Rollins, Cannonball Adderley, and as musical director for the legendary singer Nancy Wilson.
As of late he's found the creativity in a trio setting, with bassist Ben Allison and drummer Allan Mednard. One unmistakable sign of a true creative is the uncanny ability to find new ways to express.
On Sunny Day, Wolff's new release, experimenting with beat-making software and loops, this threesome shows an engaging display on Michael's original compositions, accompanied by a gorgeous solo expression of the Lennon/McCartney nugget In My Life.
Hear a track from Sunny Day each morning at 8:20 AM, another feature made possible by the members of WBGO.
