Music has a formula: Understanding theory, originality,
natural talent, the right chemistry, discipline and focus, incorporate
your own influences, understand the business side, and most
importantly, music continues to grow inside you for the rest of your
life.
Sinan Bakir has accomplished and understands all of
the above with his (self released) debut LP "On My Way" His well
matched trio including the extremely talented Thomas Kneeland on
acoustic bass and the magnificent drummer Mark Ferber, have presented
us with something new, different and fresh. Jazz has evolved yet again
with this new alternative. Lend an ear, it's not your
parents/grandparents music anymore. If you haven't discovered Jazz yet,
now is the opportune time to do so. Jazz has a new vehicle with
Sinan Bakir at the helm and this generation can claim him as one of their own.
Debut LP "On My Way" .
"Stop and Go" has a delicious vibe with an example of what a perfect trio should sound like. Listen for the drum solo.
"Ice
Orbits"
www.myspace.com/sinanbakir has a sweet lazy day feel with layers
of emotional complexities yawning and spreading it's wings.
"Evergreen" Is truly a lovely piece from start to finish with an epic bass solo.
