[ Universal Music / CD ]
Release Date: Friday 16 November 2018
Hollywood icon Jeff Goldblum and his long-time band The Mildred Snitzer Orchestra, release the highly anticipated debut from the jazz pianist entitled 'The Capitol Studios Sessions'. Goldblum, who has been playing the piano since he was a child, has performed with his jazz band at venues in Los Angeles and New York City over the past few decades. When he's not filming, the actor hosts a weekly jazz variety show at LA's Rockwell Table and Stage. Frequented by locals and A-listers alike, the show intersperses Goldblum's love of jazz with his passion and skills at improvised comedy. The atmosphere and energy of these shows is captured perfectly on this album, which Jeff credits to producer Larry Klein (Joni Mitchell, Herbie Hancock, Madeleine Peyroux). For the recording, Larry recreated the buzz of The Rockwell at the legendary Capitol Studios. The studio was transformed into a jazz club - food and drink was served to an invited live studio audience of Rockwell regulars, friends and family.
