Posi-Tone label is proud to present "Solid Moments," the latest in a series of projects he began curating specially for the label in 2018. With Solid Moments, the series progresses confidently into 2020. The album features Idle Hands, a collaborative sextet of top-tier musicians who have done illustrious work as leaders or sidemen for Posi-Tone.
The instrumentation of "Solid Moments" matches that of Grant Green’s mid-’60s classic "Idle Moments," a vibes/guitar/piano/tenor texture that producer Marc Free considers both beautiful and also under-utilized. Yet Solid Moments is not an attempt to recreate the atmosphere and mood of Green’s album. The emphasis is new original music by these band members.
