It is rare to find a jazz guitarist who can blend the lyricism of the bop idiom and the edginess of the avant-garde. Scott DuBois has a touch that invokes a master’s control and an innovator’s daring. DuBois’s new CD Banshees is his Sunnyside Records debut and a document of his forward thinking developments on jazz guitar. The record features musicians who are globally recognized as being at creative music’s apex: Gebhard Ullman (reeds), Thomas Morgan (bass) and Kresten Osgood (drums).
