Joshua Redman, drummer Brian Blade, bassist Scott Colley, and trumpeter Ron Miles, whose new album, Still Dreaming, was released on Nonesuch Records in May, performed songs from the album and more at last year's Jazz in Marciac festival. They recently released a video of their Marciac performance of the album track "Unanimity," and have now shared a video from Marciac of the non-album track "Walls-Bridges," which you can watch below. The song was written by Ed Blackwell, Cameron Brown, and Dewey Redman.
Still Dreaming was inspired by the band Old and New Dreams, of which Joshua Redman's father Dewey Redman was an integral part. Old and New Dreams had an all-star lineup of Ornette Coleman collaborators: Don Cherry, Charlie Haden, and Ed Blackwell. The new album features six new compositions by the new band plus one tune by Haden, one by Coleman. To pick up a copy of Still Dreaming, head to your local record store, iTunes, Amazon, and the Nonesuch Store, where CD and vinyl orders include a download of the complete album at checkout. The album also can be heard on Spotify and Apple Music.
For tickets to see Redman perform live, including previously announced performances by the Still Dreaming band in Cleveland, Minneapolis, Iowa City, and Newport in the weeks ahead, and newly announced shows in San Francisco, Santa Cruz, Seattle, Toronto, and Vancouver this fall, with more still to come, visit the tour page.
