Yong and talented Jazz vocalist and trombonist Seth Weaver is setting the jazz scene ablaze. Having won numerous prestigious awards for both is singing and his playing, Seth now turns to the role of bandleader, gathering seventeen fine musicians into an impressive Big Band performance/recording that includes yet another aspect of his gifts: composing and arranging!
The tracks include five of Seth’s own compositions – The Hudson, What If, Frost, Red, and The Last Hour of February – along with standard favorites Here’s That Rainy Day, On A Clear Day, and It Could Happen To You.
Seth plays, sings and conducts his Big Band in a recording that is not only a major achievement in toto, but also one fine collection of big ban sounds we’ve all been missing! Recommended. Grady Harp, March 20
