Kirk Knuffke- Brother (PREORDER)
SKU: 716043199921
Cornetist Kirk Knuffke, hailed as "one of modern jazz's most skilled navigators of the divide between freedom and swing," unveils another striking SteepleChase album this March. Following acclaimed projects like Cherryco, Tight Like This, Play Date, and Super Blonde, Knuffke again redefines ensemble possibilities with daring instrumentation and imaginative repertoire. His warm, distinctive cornet tone-played on the rare double shepherd's-crook horn-anchors a program balancing tradition and innovation. Standards, early jazz gems, and soulful classics are transformed through collective improvisation, while Knuffke's originals sparkle with wit and lyricism. Critics have praised his ability to honour past masters while sounding entirely himself. This new release continues that legacy: colourful, inventive, swinging, and deeply memorable.This new release confirms his stature and offers another dazzling chapter in his ongoing story. For longtime admirers, it is a welcome continuation; for newcomers, it is an ideal entry point into the world of a cornetist whose artistry bridges past and present, inside and outside, swing and freedom. "Cornetist Kirk Knuffke's exquisite taste is long established. _at aesthetic has always arrived subtly and cleanly, as it does on this beguiling new album". (Peter Margasak - Downbeat on SCCD31964 Super Bonde)
