180 GRAM AUDIOPHILE VINYL
BRAND NEW ALBUM
INCLUDES INSERT
As the grandson of the late trumpeter Doc Cheatham, and former student of legendary jazz trumpeter Donald Byrd, trumpeter Theo Croker is an artist steeped in jazz tradition and he is rapidly becoming one of the hottest jazz artists of this era.
Crokers own music reveals a love of organic funk, soul, and groove-oriented hip-hop. Helping to raise Crokers musical vibrations is his ensemble, featuring saxophonist Anthony Ware, keyboardist Michael King, guitarist Ben Eunson, bassist Eric Wheeler, and drummer Kassa Overall. Also adding color to the proceedings are guitarist Femi Temowo and saxophonist Irwin Hall. Dee Dee Bridgewater appears on the classic tune Love From The Sun. Croker proves hes got deep ideas about life, spirituality, and how music connects us all. Its an ebullient, groove-conscious message perhaps best expressed on the bass-heavy Its Gonna Be Alright. Trading the songs title phrase back and forth like old friends high-fiving on the street, you can hear Croker and his band smiling.
