Description
Recorded in NYC at the famed Systems Two Studios, 'Serpent' features one of the world's most sought after jazz drummers, Willie Jones III, the swinging accompaniment of Anthony Wonsey on piano, and bassist extraordinaire Michael Janisch, while showcasing eight contemporary original compositions from the leader himself, with stellar performances by all on board. What became a yearly routine pilgrimage to the Big Apple ended up a chance to record an album, and 'Serpent' is what came out as a result.
rrGarnett can do anything from performing with the Rolling Stones, to ensembles that specialise in free improvisation. A hugely versatile musician and first call sideman, he has enjoyed success as both a professional creative jazz artist, composer and arranger, and an in demand session, studio and commercial saxophonist, having racked up countless album sideman and recording credits along the way.
rrEasily performing over 200 events a year with many of Europe's leading bands and creative jazz ensembles, he is also a regular sideman choice for many of the top visiting American jazz artists when touring in Europe, and has himself performed in over 30 countries worldwide appearing at such prestigious venues as the Blue Note, Birdland, as well as the Perugia, North Sea, Vittoria, Montreax, and Oslo Jazz Festivals to name but a few, with varied and diverse artists across the spectrum such as Sir John Dankworth, Wynton Marsalis, Pete King, Humphrey Littleton, Scott Hamilton, Van Morrison, as well as with his contemporaries Gareth Lockrane, Seamus Blake, Phil Robson, and Joel Frahm.
rrPersonnel: Alex Garnett (tenor saxophone), Anthony Wonsey (piano), Michael Janisch (double bass), Willie Jones III (drums)
