In an age where bombast and overindulgence are kings, an ensemble like the Brooklyn based quartet Hush Point is a breath of fresh air. Focusing on great arranging, fascinating group interplay and a startling use of sound dynamics, the ensemble of trumpeter John McNeil, saxophonist Jeremy Udden, bassist Aryeh Kobrinsky and drummer Anthony Pinciotti presents their sophomore recording, Blues and Reds, featuring all original compositions in line with the great writers and arrangers of contemporary jazz of the 1950s and 1960s, that is to say, approachable yet advanced.
