By grzech In All That Jazz /   No Comments

More Touch, the powerful new album by visionary vibraphonist, marimbist and composer Patricia Brennan will be out November 18 via Pyroclastic Records. Joining Brennan are her wholly unique quartet with bassist Kim Cass, drummer Marcus Gilmore and percussionist Mauricio Herrera.

“Moving way outside the standard language of jazz vibraphone, Patricia Brennan has created something like a landscape of vapor, full of wandering melodies lost in the fog.” – Giovanni Russonello, citing Maquishti among the New York Times Best Jazz Albums of 2021

“You could say that Brennan drags the vibraphone into the 21st century, but her record suggests that mallet based percussion was always ripe for exploration.”
– Daniel Felsenthal, Pitchfork
