SCCD 33144 Peter McEachern “Code 2”

SteepleChase launched its sister label “LookOut” in 2012 to introduce world’s jazz artists who deserve wider recognition. The label amassed over 40 titles now.

Here is #44 - veteran trombonist Peter McEachern and his quartet.

McEachern bases his activities in Connecticut but tours and teaches all over USA. He released a CD in 2018 entitled “Bone Code” with his trio. This 2021 version is expanded with the addition of the young saxophone star Noah Preminger.

McEachern is not only dextrous with his instrument but also a prolific composer, who penned most of the tunes on this album.

“What strikes one as significant, however, is McEachern's trombone technique, which features a variety of styles played with great intimacy… While often subtle but never rambunctious, his understated technique allows the compositions to breath.” (Don Phipps – All About Jazz)
