"Anthony Wilson has cultivated a diverse body of work shaped by long-standing collaborations with jazz greats like John Clayton, Diana Krall, and Charles Lloyd, as well as by the deep musical influence of his father, legendary bandleader Gerald Wilson. With his nonet, Wilson crafts lush, harmonically sophisticated arrangements with a reverence for jazz and blues tradition, that balance intricate ensemble interplay while spotlighting his nuanced compositional voice and the expressive artistry of the elite improvisers that comprise his ensemble." - Sam First Recordings
