Playing tenor and alto saxes, Dayna Stephens teams up with Aaron Parks/p, Ben Street/b, Greg Hutchinson/dr and guest Charles Altura/g on a collection of originals. Stephens has a warm and glowing sound on the reeds, soft and mellow on ”Trust” and gasping on the blue “Occasionally “Cynical” with touches of melancholic for extra flavor. He lets the fog roll in on “Hard-Boiled Wonderland” and floats on his “Drive North To Find”. The band is in great symbiotic form, with Altura tasty on “As Truth Rises Above Power”. The new Old School.
