“Fabulous Jazz/Hip Hop Single...It’s smooth, it’s creative, it’s Jazz. The vocals are superb, the lyrics are clear and engaging and the sound is contagious!” – Radioindy.com
This has been a very exciting year for our band. In the past four months we played at the Iridium jazz club three times. We have just recently been signed with the premiere smooth jazz radio promoter, All That Jazz, Inc. for our new single release “From Bebop to Hip Hop”. Records on their current roster include those by Herbie Hancock, Smokey Robinson, John Legend, George Benson, Kenny G and Sade. Check out their website at www.AllThatJazzInc.com.
Last summer, our band released the single, “The Wall Street Recession Time Blues.” The tune aired on various radio stations across the country. Just before Thanksgiving, the second largest non-commercial radio station in the country WXPN/Philadelphia played the song. The Boston Herald got in on the act and profiled the band on Labor Day.
Most of the band members are New York jazz club regulars: David Shaich on bass, plays regularly at The Cotton Club; Joel Mofsenson on piano, played in Broadway shows such as “I Love My Wife,” “Dreamgirls,” and “Cats”; Mike Campenni on drums, played with Gil Coggins, Ted Curson, and Gordon Edwards; Gottfried Stoger on sax/flute, played with Joe Zawinul and Toots Thielemans; and Deforest Raphael sings in many jazz clubs and festivals around the country.
Last October, the Dennis Angel Band went to California to play at a gala fundraising event for the Children’s Brain Tumor Foundation at the Beverly Hills Hotel. Dennis and his wife, Linda were co-founders of CBTF in 1988, when their daughter Ilana was suffering from a brain tumor. She died the following year. CBTF has raised over $6.5 million and awarded over $5 million in grants for research to help find the causes of and effective treatments for pediatric brain and spinal cord tumors across the country.
