The Alan Broadbent Trio featuring Harvie S and Billy Mintz-Record Release: Like Minds Concert in Boston

Concert Info

Alan Broadbent-piano, Harvie S-bass and Billy Mintz-drumsAlan Broadbent is one of New Zealands favorite musical sons and perhaps the most well-known and multi-talented of them all. Many are familiar with his arranging and conducting for Sir Paul McCartney, Diana Krall, Pat Metheny and Michael Bubl. Others may know Broadbent has received 8 Grammy nominations and won 2 Grammy Awards for Best Orchestral Arrangement Accompanying a Vocal, one for Natalie Cole and one for Shirley Horn. On LIKE MINDS, Broadbent takes a seat on the piano bench for his third Savant recording with his trio featuring the great bassist Harvie S and the colorful drumming of Billy Mintz. Together these men play with notable clarity and poise, and their performances even those of familiar standards are wonderfully tuneful, sometimes whimsical and often moving, with the overall effect always coming across as coolly engaging and totally spontaneous. Im averse to playing what I jokingly call big band trio arrangements, where everybody plays the rhythmic hits, Broadbent explains. Ill get a big band if I want to do that. For me, for the trio, I want it to change every time. Spontaneous and off-the-cuff these 9 tracks may be but the closer you listen, the more inventive and exquisitely crafted they sound, with the recording showing that, without a doubt, these three superb musicians are of like minds indeed All GA sections (Main Floor GA & Miles Davis Mezzanine) will be seated by host and are first come, first served (other than where a reserved sign is posted to table).
