Formerly the guitarist of the
jazz/rock/blues outfit Avenue Blue, Jeff Golub stepped out on his own for
the first time with 1999's Out of the Blue.
After three acclaimed
and popular Bluemoon/Atlantic albums with his band, Avenue Blue, guitarist
Jeff Golub has decided to fly solo. "OUT OF THE BLUE" finds Golub
stepping out front with an all-new collection of progressive
blues-inflected instrumentals, fit to burst with funky Latin-tinged
rhythms, soulful melodies and dramatic arrangements. Tracks such as the
smokin' "Lucky Strike" and the sleek and sultry single, "The
Velvet Touch," display Golub's ever-growing musical maturity and offer
ample proof that he is one of today's most inventive and graceful
guitarists.
"I wanted to
take a lot more chances," says Golub, "so I decided to do it
under my name to show that this is a different approach to the music. I
didn't want to have any categorical limitations to where the music
went."
