The brainchild of seasoned bassist\/composer Robert Miller, Project Grand Slam (PGS) continues catalog building with\u00a0 \u201cPGS 7″ — its latest release. This ensemble proves there\u2019s no shame in sticking to your guns and hammering away with a fusion of Jazz, Rock and Latino stylizations \u2014 maybe not so familiar to a millennial and post-millennial crowd \u2014 but stuff deep in the craw of any proficient musician appreciative of these recordings. The dialogue the band makes between genres gets slicker and slicker with every subsequent release yet PSG never loses its raw, propulsive core.<\/p>\n
Originally formed in 2007, PGS has released eight well-received albums all acclaimed for lovers of fusion. Based in New York City. PSG 7 may be the \u201calbum of the year\u201d for lovers of great instrumentalists and great rock vocals. In so many ways PSG should at least come close given the paucity of musical depth so much pop music reflects. The previous release, “Greetings From Serbia (Jan. 2019) was recorded live at the Nisville Jazz Festival and is noted for being\u00a0 \u201ca watershed record\u201d \u2014 a great live document.<\/p>\n
But a recording studio return was awaited by fans. The previous studio album, “Trippin\u2019” (2018), hit Billboard\u2019s charts and was named a \u201cbest of 2018\u201d on many lists. Now, PSG 7 does that all that the previous studio album did and more. Pick it up or head to a live show.<\/p>\n
In anticipation of the new year, PSG starts its Fall performance schedule with a return engagement Friday, Sept. 20th\u00a0at its “home base” in NYC \u2014 The Groove in Greenwich Village.<\/p>\n
