Artist

Lucien Johnson

Last updated: 5 hours ago

Wax///Wane is a new album by New Zealand saxophonist Lucien Johnson made up of six compositions about the moon and other wonders. It features an intriguing ensemble; John Bell on vibraphone and Michelle Velvin on harp create shimmering, impressionistic landscapes while the towering rhythm section of Tom Callwood on double bass, Cory Champion on drums and Riki Piripi on percussion provide gravity through their smouldering grooves. Johnson's saxophone, described by Jazz in Paris as "lyrical as Coltrane, as powerful as Rollins" soars above the ensemble, bringing mystique and aura to these unique pieces, themselves an expert study in light and shade.
