Details:
If there is hope for jazz in this still-young century it rests in the hands and hearts of artists such as Steve Hatfield, a composer and player dedicated to clarity of expression, to the melody, harmony and rhythms of music as well as life. Hatfieldâs music captures the full beauty of the human experienceââthe serenity of twilight and the burst of hopeful rays that come with morning light.

His emotional range is evident in original compositions such as âJust Be Wally,â âWacky Shackâ and âAs You Were,â but itâs also evident in his choice of coversââthe haunting pop masterpiece â6 Undergroundâ (Sneaker Pimps) and Joe Jacksonâs equally masterful âSteppinâ Out.â The interplay between Hatfield, bassist Mark Foley, guitarist Randy Zellers and keyboardist Steve Bartkoski is remarkable not just in the musical acumen displayed but in each musicianâs dedication to the emotional expression behind each song. The music is heartfelt but not absent of humor (as evidenced on Bartkoskiâs âMosley Street Motorcycle Gangâ) and always rewarding for the listener.

Joined by jazz legend Jerry Hahn on âMosley Streetâ and the stunning âAs You Were,â and lap steel player Bret Boyer (âNever Newâ and the title cut), Hatfield has crafted one of the most fascinating albums to emerge from Wichita, Kansasââor anywhere elseââin recent memory.

Forget what you know or believe about genres, about clichés, about jazz, or rock, or in-strumentals, guys named Steve, or anything else and instead embrace the music contained on Just Be Wally. The music is all you need to know.
