The Mike Rood Communion - cd release concert
Of Note: Hailed as "one of the best and brightest of the new generation" and "a current master", guitarist and composer Mike Rood recently released his tour de force debut album of original music, The Desert and the City, to critical acclaim. Since 2008, his group, The Mike Rood Communion, has been performing avidly around the globe at such venues as New York's Iridium Jazz Club and the Bern Jazz Festival in Switzerland. Featuring some of the current generation's most prominent musicians, the group has been defying and defining genres, pushing the envelope in musical expression and technical sophistication. A New York City native, Rood was born into a family of classical musicians, and began piano studies at a young age. While continuing his classical training, Rood taught himself guitar during his early teens. He recently received a Bachelor's Degree from The New School for Jazz and Contemporary Music in New York City.
"Sparse settings of relative quietude and lively demonstrations of technical sophistication and motion The group engages in devilish interplay as they create interlocking parts that move in different and surprising ways Rood's work is brimming with thoughtfulness, sophistication and musical maturity."
- Dan Bilawsky, All About Jazz
