**The artists featured on this album, Arkadia Jazz All-Stars: The New Young Lions
of Jazz”, are Jazz music’s future legends. They are the “new sounds” in the rich
legacy of Jazz. Having played under the last generation’s luminaries… Coltrane, 
Parker, Davis, Dizzy, etc, these players provide an imaginative breathe of fresh
air in Jazz world, and in doing so helped evolved America’s original art form… Jazz.**

“4 stars… The “New Thing” really swings on this collection… jazz performed with 
grace and melody… Swift and stunning performances.” – OUTSIGHT

Arkadia Records and the Arkadia Jazz All-Stars, by virtue of being relatively new,
can relate to the Young Lions. We’ve been recording them since our beginnings. We
decided that an album that features this new generation of jazz musicians is long
overdue, and we want to spotlight them either as sidemen or leaders. …as often the
best work is done through cooperative effort.

Recorded specifically for Arkadia Records, “The New Young Lions of Jazz” lets listener’s
bear witness to the changing sound of Jazz. You can hear each brick being laid, 
each branch snapping, and each step taken in a new direction as this group of distinguished
musicians evolve their sound with each note played. Don’t miss out on hearing these
future legends just because they are young. They’re already musical Masters, the
history books just have to catch up.
