Grateful by Mat Jodrell
Melbourne trumpet player Mat Jodrell’s fourth album as bandleader ‘Grateful’.
In this ever changing, uncertain world in which we live, to be grateful is one of the most powerful tools we have to bring joy to ourselves and others. 'Grateful' was composed with this spirit, to uplift and keep us headed on the right path. The album features Jimmy Macbride from New York on drums, and Miki Yamanaka on piano, who is originally from Japan but now also lives in NYC. The rest of the band consists of long time friends and colleagues, Carl Mackey on saxophones, Jordan Murray on trombone and Sam Anning on bass.
