Description
With inspiration provided by myriad jazz masters and the Los Angeles musicians she surrounds herself with, vibist Lolly Allen creates a warm,
swinging and jubilant set of music on "Coming Home", her debut album on OA2 Records.
Opening with Horace Silver's "The Hippest Cat in Hollywood," Lolly celebrates the LA jazzscene that developed out of the flourishing Central Ave clubs of the '50s. Surrounding herself with revered veterans of the scene, such as drummer Paul Kreibich and pianist Tom Owens, and young, vital members of the next generation, including pianist Josh Nelson and saxophonist Danny
Janklow, Lolly delivers invigorated perspectives of the quintet group dynamic. Classics like Mario Bauza's "Mambo Inn" and Dizzy Gillespie's "Bebop"
are paired with Allen’s originals, “Little Hummingbird” and the title cut, in a seamless blend of supple ideas and renewed approaches to traditional
repertoire.
