Unforeseen – Chad Lawson Trio
8 July 2014 Darby
Pianist Chad Lawson’s delicately rendered chord progressions seem at times like he’s tapping eggs instead of piano keys. To that end, the threesome offers a very close-knit musical bonding process. Lawson is a supreme melodicist, witnessed on a series of originals and pieces such as his take on Lennon and McCartney’s pop ballad Michelle. More importantly, the group casts an identifiable sound and style as they abide by a loose groove, supplanted with tightly organized arrangements. -AllAboutJazz.com
