About
Joey Alexander takes another giant step forward. Nominated for two GRAMMYs for My Favorite Things (2015) and Countdown 2016), Joey continues to demonstrate his aptitude as a composer, bandleader, and musician, with his most recent album Eclipse. Recorded over a three-day period beginning on the day of the 2017 solar eclipse, this album features the pianist with a stellar rhythm section of bassist Reuben Rogers and drummer Eric Harland, with guest appearances by saxophonist Joshua Redman on three tracks. Most importantly, Eclipse showcases Alexander’s significant progress as an astute composer, writing six of the 11 tunes.
