Benny Reid to Release New Album

On September 15th, Concord Jazz Records will release Escaping Shadows, the new album from jazz saxophonist Benny Reid. On his new release, 28-year-old Reid reveals the next vital step in his maturation as an adventurous artist and an ambitious composer. The album features nine originals and one cover song. Noteworthy originals include the volume-surging, rock-grooved "Facing the Edge" and the hybrid "New Days" that starts with a jazz groove followed by a jungle beat in the middle section. The lone cover of the CD is a pensive rendering of Pat Metheny's "Always and Forever".

Escaping Shadows, will be available everywhere (CD and Digital) September 15th, 2009.
