American drumming legend Alvin Queen follows upon the success of his previous celebrated releases with Feeling Good, an expertly curated programme of thirteen songs representing American music and culture in its many forms. Two musicians ideally suited for the standard piano jazz trio format - Carlton Holmes on piano and Danton Boller on bass - fill out the group.
This much-anticipated project arrives after the celebrated success of Alvin Queen Trio's Nighttrain To Copenhagen in 2021 (which captured the #3 spot on JazzWeek's 2022 Year End Top 100 Jazz Chart). Feeling Good is an essential musical statement but goes well beyond that, reminding us to celebrate the legacy of jazz, stage, and film music from the past as we make music into the future. The Alvin Queen Trio has done it again!
