NEW! Jeff Dayton - Tribute to Glen Campbell
Performance of the Month
Listen to your Disklavier play along with this live concert tribute to country music legend, Glen Campbell! Jeff Dayton’s 15 years as bandleader and guitarist for Campbell were filled with touring, adventures and stories as they traveled and recorded together. From the Today Show (NBC) to their award-winning South Dakota Symphony PBS special, at the White House and on international shows, their years together are remembered as Jeff pays tribute to his mentor and friend.
LP and the Vinyl
LP and the Vinyl sends pop and R&B favorites through a kaleidoscope of jazz, providing the best of both worlds: familiar songs dear to the heart, freshly intensified with beautifully mastered improvisation. Vocalist Leonard Patton draws upon his rich background in jazz and gospel to energize the virtuosic interplay of pianist Danny Green, bassist Justin Grinnell, and drummer Julien Cantelm. From the lively dance-inducing numbers of Michael Jackson to the soulful hits by Stevie Wonder – no two performances are the same.
Patton’s most recent solo release, A Beautiful Day, included jazz heavyweights Antonio Sanchez, Lionel Loueke, Ben Williams, and Aaron Parks. His previous release, Expressions, is a collection of duos with Grammy-nominated pianist Geoffrey Keezer. Green, Grinnell, and Cantelm have been playing together since 2010 as the Danny Green Trio. In that time, they have released four albums, all receiving high praise from the press, and international radio airplay. The trio and Patton joined forces in 2015 to form LP And The Vinyl.
This performance was originally recorded live on August 4, 2019, at Festival of Arts in Laguna Beach, CA.
