By Jimbo Ross and Jimbo Ross and the Bodacious Blues Band.
Ross' new album, JAZZ PASSION & SATIN LATIN, hearkens back to his jazz roots with an accessible playlist of Great American Standards, jazz classics, and original compositions. After deciding the tracks and then performing the arrangements live, the band entered the Sonic Boom Room studio and recorded the tracks together (with minimal overdubbing and no track-stacking) over a four-day period. Ross plays a modified copy of a classic viola, reproduced on a 3-D printer, and dually upgraded with a 5th string to extend the upper range of the instrument, and an electronic pickup to allow it to be heard alongside the other instruments.
