Jake Leckie at Blue Whale

About

January marks the one year anniversary of the release of Jake Leckie’s debut album The Abode, which he recorded in NYC just days before moving to LA. To celebrate, he has assembled an exciting band made of some of LA’s most creative musicians to play the album from top to bottom. The Abode is a meditation on migration, and this group represents Leckie’s most recent move to the west coast.

"The Boston-born bassist's recording locates itself solidly within the acoustic jazz tradition yet never sounds less than current, its broad stylistic scope reflective of his 'polyphonic openness to anything and everything.'" - Ron Schepper, textura
