SUMMARY:Dwight Yoakam
DESCRIPTION:Dwight Yoakam has sold more than 25 million albums worldwide\, and he is a 21-time nominated\, multiple GRAMMY Award winner. He has 12 gold albums and 9 platinum or multi-platinum albums\, with five of those albums topping Billboard’s Country Albums chart and another 14 landing in the Top 10. Nearly 40 of Yoakam’s singles have charted on Billboard\, with 14 peaking in the Top 10. Yoakam is a recipient of the Artist of the Year award from the Americana Music Association\, and BMI Country Music’s President’s Award\, the most prestigious award offered by the organizations. He was also inducted into the Nashville Songwriters Hall of Fame in the Songwriter/Artist category at the 49th anniversary Gala in 2019 in Nashville\, TN. \nYoakam’s self-curated SiriusXM channel\, titled Dwight Yoakam and The Bakersfield Beat ‘Where Country Went Mod’ launched in April of 2018. The channel celebrates the Bakersfield sound and those whom it has inspired. Guests have boasted the likes of Post Malone\, Lukas Nelson\, Beck\, Chris Hillman\, Jakob Dylan\, Mike Nesmith and Mickey Dolans\, Dave Alvin\, and Jackie DeShannon\, among others. \nIn 2016\, Yoakam released his bluegrass album Swimmin’ Pools\, Movie Stars… on Sugar Hill Records. Featuring a band of bluegrass luminaries\, this album boasts a collection of reinterpreted favorites from his catalogue\, as well as a cover of Prince’s “Purple Rain”. Produced by nine-time GRAMMY winner Gary Paczosa (Alison Krauss\, Dolly Parton)\, Jon Randall (songwriter of “Whiskey Lullaby”)\, and Yoakam himself\, and mixed by Chris Lord-Alge\, this album reflects the love for bluegrass music that Yoakam developed at an early age in Kentucky and that has inspired him for many years thereafter. In 2018\, Yoakam released two songs\, “Pretty Horses” and “Then Came Monday” (the latter written with Chris Stapleton). \nIn addition to his musical career\, Yoakam is a formidable film and television actor who has appeared in over 40 feature films\, including Sling Blade and Panic Room. In 2016\, he recurred in David E. Kelley’s Amazon series Goliath. Recently\, he appeared in director Steven Soderbergh’s film Logan Lucky with Channing Tatum and Daniel Craig. Yoakam is capable of seamlessly melting into his roles and impressively standing toe-to-toe with some of the world’s top thespians over the course of his storied and successful acting career\, including Jodie Foster\, Tommy Lee Jones\, Jared Leto\, Forest Whitaker and Matthew McConaughey.

SUMMARY:Joshua Redman Quartet feat. Gabrielle Cavassa (A2 Jazz Fest)
DESCRIPTION:The A2 Jazz Fest and The Ark team up to present saxophonist Joshua Redman\, one of the most acclaimed and respected jazz artists to have emerged in our generation. His latest project\, Where Are We\, marks the first time that Joshua has included a vocalist (Gabrielle Cavassa) on a record\, and features Aaron Parks on piano\, Joe Sanders on bass\, and Brian Blade on drums; with special guests Nicholas Payton (trumpet)\, Kurt Rosenwinkel (guitar)\, Peter Bernstein (guitar)\, and Joel Ross (vibes). Joshua notes that “the surface concept of WHERE ARE WE is rather simple: each of the songs on the album is about\, or at least makes reference to\, a specific geographical location (city or state or region) in the United States: Bruce Springsteen’s “Streets of Philadelphia\,” Count Basie’s “Going To Chicago\,” Rodgers & Hart’s “Manhattan” and John Coltrane’s Alabama\,” etc etc… So\, on one level\, this is an album “about” America — at once a celebration and a critique. But it is also\, to varying degrees\, a ballads album\, a standards album\, an album of romantic longing\, an album of social reflection\, an album of melodic invention\, an album of improvisational adventure\, an album of mashups (stylistic and titular)\, perhaps even a tribute album of sorts.” \nConceived and planned during the pandemic lockdown\, states Joshua\, “it was a dream come true to finally have a chance to connect Aaron\, Joe\, and Brian — 3 of the most sublimely lyrical and deeply grooving musicians on the planet\, who\, somehow\, had never before played together as a rhythm section. And it was a transformative experience to collaborate with Gabrielle — a vocalist of uncommon style\, sincerity\, and soul. This was my first time ever recording with a singer on one of my own projects\, and I relished the challenge of discovering and inhabiting new musical roles for myself — not only as a featured soloist and “lead” but also as a supportive accompanist and interlocutor. The magic of this particular gathering of musicians was that we were able to come together from points afar\, to converge (physically and creatively) in a particular place at a particular time\, and to embrace\, with the fullest imagination and without the slightest reservation\, the ethic of “serving the songs.” In this sense\, WHERE ARE WE is perhaps above all\, a meditation on the power and importance of place — the unique human beauty created when we locate ourselves in shared physical spaces together with others; the loss\, anomie\, and angst suffered when we divide ourselves unnaturally and unjustly apart.” \nThis concert is presented by the A2 JAZZ FEST.
