Details:
TWO LOW Featuring Lionel Loueke is the result of a fruitful collaboration of highly talented musicians. Top-shelf bassists Rob Gourlay and Jim Stinnett, have performed and taught together for many years. Add guest artist, Lionel Loueke, and this recording becomes something truly special. Loueke is the creme de la creme of guitarist on the music scene today. See him on the cover of the cover of Jazziz magazine May '06. Lionel's current associations, Herbie Hancock, Sting, Wayne Shorter, and Marcus Miller, attest to his level of musicianship. In his featured seven tracks, Lionel's African roots are abundantly obvious.

Dom Moio appears on TWO LOW playing percussion. His ability to supply a powerful groove with only a few small instruments is a testament to his deeply developed sense of time. Dom is the consummate percussionist.

While still a youth, Grant Stinnett displays empathy and a beautiful sense of style and grace. His bass playing on TWO LOW provides a rich and complimentary voice.

Joe Huntâs support on Two Low reminds us why he was chosen to play in the bands of Bill Evans and Stan Getz. Joe's drumming is as musical and tasteful as it gets.

This is not your typical bass album. As a matter of fact, this is not your typical album at all. The music is eclectic and powerful, yet all the while soothing and easy on the ears. The eleven original compositions are quite endearing and showcase contemporary bass styles and techniques at a virtuosic yet subtle level.

This is a special CD deserving your attention.
