Incredibly ambitious and creative, and a mainstay in the Los Angeles\u2019 contemporary jazz scene, Sam Gendel<\/a> is both prolific and fluid in a variety of genres, constantly rolling out new solo and collaborative works. The multi-instrumentalist and producer’s latest venture saw him team up with LA-based Brazilian 7-string guitarist Fabiano do Nascimento<\/a> and a 10-track instrumental album entitled The Room<\/em> is the fruit of this union.<\/p>\n

\u201cIn 2011 I was in a Latin jazz group called Triorganico,\u201d do Nascimento explained. \u201cWe had a gig at a restaurant owned by Sam’s cousin, who invited him along. Sam brought his sax and sat in.\u201d He continues, “We were making music that we had a real mutual appreciation for,I was always joking that Sam should play flute, and he tried multiple things before he got this unique [flute] sound out of his soprano. Most people don’t actually realise that it’s a saxophone.\u201d<\/p>\n

Each track on the upcoming The Room<\/em> taps “into the rhythms and regions of a South America without borders”, as the press release describes, and some draw from indigenous melodies, and popular old Brazilian tunes.<\/p>\n

We’ll have to wait until January 26th for The Room<\/em> to be out through Real World Records<\/a> but we can already hear the gorgeous and celestial first single, \u2018Foi Boto\u2019 . Here it is.<\/p>\n
