Patricia Brennan - More Touch (2022) [Official Digital Download 24/96]

On her new album More Touch, vibraphonist, marimbist and composer Patricia Brennan – whose debut landed on the New York Times list of Best Jazz Albums of 2021 – reimagines the percussion quartet through jazz, new music, and Mexican folkloric influences. Joining her are internationally renowned drummer Marcus Gilmore, percussionist Mauricio Herrera, and bassist Kim Cass. More Touch expands brilliantly on the singular vocabulary showcased on Brennan’s solo debut. Enhancing the resonant beauty and percussive melodicism of the vibraphone and marimba with extended techniques and subtle electronic manipulation, Brennan employs an expansive sonic palette that blurs the lines between progressive jazz and contemporary classical music. On More Touch, she bridges tradition and innovation by drawing influences from the Afro-Cuban and Son Jarocho traditions – and their attendant improvisatory practices – of her native Mexico.
