REVIEWS

When listening to Bill Frisell play, it’s easy to forget you’re hearing an electric guitar. Through touch, tone and voicings that are free of the usual six-string tropes, his instrument can sound, variously, like a pedal steel, a toy piano, a string quartet, a church bell, a plane in the distance, even a human voice.

This remarkable gift continues to serve him well on his 29th solo album, whether he’s covering Stephen Foster […]

REVIEWS

The guitars of Bill Frisell and Vinicius Cantuária melt together in my car speakers as if impossibly designed to echo the beauty in this very moment…
For those familiar with these two artists, either individually or in their previous collaborative incarnations including Frisell’s own Intercontinentals or Cantuária’s absorbing Horse and Fish, their high level of artistic integrity and deep level of musical simpatico is a given. However, on Lágrimas Mexicanas their collaboration reaches a milestone with their first true duet record. In fact, Frisell and Cantuária are the only two musicians on the entire record, credited with vocals, percussion, acoustic and electric guitars and loops. The only outside contribution comes in the form of […]

Sign of Life finds Frisell exploring chamber-group dynamics and interplay in ways that toggle between composition and improvisation, reverberating soundscapes and spiky minimalism… Owing to Frisell¹s familiar touch, tone and affection for roots music, a few tunes on Signs of Life should instantly appeal to his Nashville-bred following … and the arrangements take full advantage of the ensemble¹s rich sonorities and intuitive level of play.­ by Mike Joyce, Jazz Times

“Frisell in peak form… the band’s extemporaneous arrangements deliver intricately worked variations on fiddle and guitar breakdowns and big vista American pastoralism …. The sound sparkles like springwater.” – Phil Johnson, The Independent – London

Bill Frisell’s Sign of Life (Savoy Jazz) is one of the most gorgeous new albums I’ve […]

All songs by John Lennon except: Across the Universe, Revolution, Nowhere Man, Please Please Me, You’ve Got to Hide Your Love Away, Come Together and Julia – written by Lennon and Paul McCartney.

“…this is a glorious hymn to the art of playing together, of which Lennon would surely approve.” – The Independent / by Nick Coleman

“All We Are Saying… may be Frisell’s closest thing to a rock record but, informed by years of improvisational experimentation‹melodically, harmonically and texturally‹it’s an album that simply couldn’t have been made by anyone else.” – All About Jazz / by John Kelman

REVIEWS

Mr. Frisell’s album represents a labor of love …. an unmistakable sound, an identifiable style …. a great deal of sensitivity and artful restraint …. this music makes up a substantial part of his DNA…. The album’s superior stretch takes up what would be Side B of the LP with a beautifully lilting “Julia” and a starkly tender “Woman” … Some of the band’s most soulful playing comes on “Beautiful Boy” … And […]

REVIEWS

“On Floratone II, with no names on the front cover, Floratone is even more clearly a group, its unique approach sculpting music distinctly cinematic in nature… Without any overt references, the music sounds like the soundtrack to an imaginary film… As Floratone continues to drive Teo Macero’s innovative collage work with trumpeter Miles Davis’ late 1960s/early 1970s electric music into the 21st century and beyond, the expansive, cinematic Floratone II gives hope that Frisell, Chamberlain, Townsend and Martine will continue to collaborate well into the future.” – John Kelman, All About Jazz
