“Soft Rock,” John Christensen’s latest recording is now available. Featuring Tony Barba, Matt Gold, Joshua Catania and Neil Hemphill, this record blends elements of jazz and rock.
Below is an excerpt from the Bandcamp site. For the full liner notes see this publicity release from Paradigm Records.
“Christensen’s compositions are a case study on how to write simply enough to work within rock-driven groove vehicles yet incorporate enough intricacy and individualism to allow such vehicles to venture away from over-travelled back-beaten paths.” – DownBeat Magazine
