JAZZ GROUP SWEATSHOP RELEASES FIRST ALBUM, OVERTIME
Father-Son Endeavor Takes Modern Jazz to New Heights
Katonah, NY-based jazz-funk ensemble Sweatshop recently debuted their spirited, groove-heavy debut Overtime. The album took six months to complete, and it was released through Sweatshop Studios’ own independent label. Edan Dover and his father Shaul Dover co-produced Overtime, with Shaul serving as engineer.
Sweatshop leader and chief composer Edan Dover (also a jazz performance undergrad at New York University) showcases his unique songwriting talents on Overtime. Whether paying homage to jazz greats like Herbie Hancock on “Arch” and “Bangin’,” or playfully experimenting with 7/4 time signature on the earthy “Frappachino,” Overtime finds a happy medium between free-form aesthetics and a more solidly-arranged approach. Track six is a punchy Rhodes-and-sax rendition of Herbie Hancock’s classic “Cantaloupe.” And to get a feel for what this amorphous jazz group sounds like live, check out the three bonus live tracks, all fresh interpretations of jazz standards.
The CD is now available online at CDBaby.com and iTunes, and an upcoming tour is in the works. With its joyful exploration of modern jazz arrangements, funkified instrumentation and unconventional time signatures, this eight-song album is sure to pique the ears of jazz fans in search of something different.
