Mike Casey - Valencia ((CD))

Description Originally his masters thesis while studying at Berklee's selective Valencia Spain campus in 2019 & premiered live at Spain's national concert hall Auditori Nacional, 'Valencia' showcases him moving far beyond the polar opposite sax/bass/drums trio & electronic/hip hop formats into expansive, cinematic, global acoustic fusion. Calling this album simply "Jazz" would be limiting: it's a forward thinking, multi-genre, multicultural experience created by an artist who is trained in jazz, but who fully absorbed a specific, inspiring environment and period of time abroad into his heart & soul, seeking to unify across geography & genre. Fully Indie. Tracks 1 Side A: 1. the Beauty of Everyday Life 2 2. Venus 3 3. Ghazal 4 Side B: 1. Universal Gratitude 5 2. Calle Pizarro 6 3. Valencia 7 4. Universal Gratitude (Reprise)
