Individuality and an uncompromising vision set most groundbreaking musicians apart from the pack. Saxophonist/composer Bill McHenry has been developing his own unique brand of forward thinking jazz for over a decade. His sound and compositional identity stand apart from his peers. His new CD Ghosts of the Sun (Sunnyside, Nov. 22, 2011) provides ample evidence of his uncanny ability to reach listeners with his lush sound and unpredictable nature as composer and improviser. McHenry is accompanied by a fantastic ensemble of topflight musicians, including guitarist Ben Monder, bassist Reid Anderson and legendary drummer Paul Motian.
