Jeff Parker

Los Angeles’s own cosmic voyagers, Jeremiah Chiu and violist Marta Sofia Honer, have offered another tantalizing glimpse into their forthcoming album, Different Rooms. Their latest dispatch, Side by Side, finds the duo in esteemed company, joined by the ever-exploratory guitarist Jeff Parker. The track is a potent teaser for the full-length, which is slated to arrive on June 20 via the reliably forward-thinking International Anthem.

Featuring four of America’s most potent musicians, all performing at the top of their game, Jeff Parker’s ‘The Way Out of Easy’ might just be the best jazz album of 2024. Another win for the ever-reliable Chicago label International Anthem.

While Small Medium Large, the exploratory kosmische jazz debut from SML (Anna Butterss, Jeremiah Chiu, Josh Johnson, Booker Stardrum & Gregory Uhlmann) contains unexpected multitudes, even at its most complex moments, it remains bright and airy, reflecting an impressive and sincere unity to their playing.
