Matt Von Roderick may be the alternative jazz crooner-trumpeter we've been waiting for. With equal parts innovative jazz virtuosity and heart-centered vocals, trailblazer Von Roderick mines the essence of classic jazz, rock, and electronica on CELESTIAL HEART and hits his mark.

Featuring legendary drummer Jim Keltner (John Lennon, Bob Dylan, Steely Dan), adventurous studio ace Mike Valerio and orchestration wizard Gil Goldstein (Wayne Shorter, Pat Metheny), CELESTIAL HEART leads with Von Roderick's out-of-this-world treatment of Fly Me To The Moon, perhaps even more true to the original song lyrics - a version you didn't realize you needed until you hear it for the first time.

Utilizing his now signature multiphonics, loops, and spoken word, CELESTIAL HEART cements Von Roderick's place within the pantheon of the real-deal singing trumpeter. Where some may be content to merely play 'at' the jazz tradition and American Songbook, Von Roderick reinvents - creating compelling new worlds within these beloved, timeless structures.

Rounding out the proceedings on CELESTIAL HEART are a nod to Mose Allison with the earthy blues track The Seventh Son featuring veteran bluesmen Johnny Lee Schell and Barry Goldberg, Herbie Hancock's Cantaloupe Island, three entirely improvised pieces, and a stark, hauntingly beautiful I Fall In Love Too Easily.

Produced by Rob Feinfield, recorded in Los Angeles at Ultratone studios, and set for a Summer release via BFD/Sony/Orchard, Matt Von Roderick's CELESTIAL HEART stands poised to perk up a whole lot of tired ears in the jazz world and beyond.
