David Gibson / A Little Somethin'

Upbeat and swinging are the best words to describe the musical energy of David Gibson. The veteran trombonist also brings his mad skills as a composer/arranger to another level with his 2009 album "A Little Somethin'." In addition to Gibson's stunning melodicism and harmonic delights, the program also features the musical and textural stylings of organ sensation Jared Gold, the fierce attack of alto saxophonist Julius Tolentino, and the hard driving swing of drummer Quincy Davis. This lineup is an actual working band that is out on the scene today, and as such, the compelling musical message arrives intact by special delivery with greater ingenuity and integrity. Featuring a tasty and soulful set of originals, the program covers a wide variety of styles, sounds, and moods from the straight ahead and classic to the funky and modern, and contains "A Little Somethin'" for everyone to enjoy.
