Joel Harrison’s Free Country records from 2003/4 and 2018 are landmark examples of someone taking American roots music, country and Appalachian songs, and putting it all into a jazz context. The London Times called Free Country ” the most singular vision you’re likely to hear all year.”In 50 years of music-making Harrison has explored almost every facet of the American music experience you can imagine, and found ways to integrate them into his own sound. The NY Times called him “protean, brilliant.” He’s an award winning composer for jazz ensembles, a wicked Telecaster twanger,a singer, writer, and producer of the Alt Guitar Summit, which Pat Metheny called “the most interesting forum for creative guitar music on the planet.” Don’t miss this!
