January 2019 – in the middle of our brainstorm about a new project - audiophile label Sound Liaison crossed our path. When we chose to dedicate the album to New Orleans, birthplace of jazz, we felt we could not do so without visiting the city. We’re glad we did, since the liveliness of music as you experience it there is a rarely felt vibration. It definitely changed something  inside the both of us.
We wanted to share this powerful feeling in more than just sounds alone. That’s how this visual addendum came into existence. New Orleans crawls into all your senses after all. We suggest you eat gumbo with it. 
Hope you’ll enjoy!

Ellister & Bob

"Being a New Orleanian I can really appreciate when someone pays homage to the great musical history of my home town. Many try and miss the mark by not fully understanding the true nature of the culture. RED in the other fully feels and embodies the vibe and spirit of New Orleans. 
From the opening “Art” it’s very apparent that they’ve spent time in New Orleans gaining insight into how the music was created and what it means to the city. 
Listen to “It Ain’t My Fault”. You can hear the rhythmic vibrancy that is NOLA coming through every musical phrase. 
St James pays homage to our classic history. Then the swinging nature of “Blues My Naughty Sweetie Gives To Me” show how the band has a grasp on many aspects of the musical diversity of NOLA 
I really enjoyed listening to RED’s take on “Monkey Puzzle”. A personal favorite of mine. 
The entire album is filled with great playing. 
Loving NOLA from start to finish."

Terence Blanchard

RED The Hague, Netherlands

RED is uplifting, vibrant and energetic, reflecting the tradition from the fifties in their quirky originals. Soulful jazz with that great Hammond sound, the classic combination of trumpet and tenor saxophone and drums that swing the American way.
Their debut CD received a ****½ review in Dutch jazz glossy Jazzism and the band members get high praise from Wynton Marsalis and Terence Blanchard. ... more
