Echoes, out January 9, 2026 via Chill Tone, evolves the delicate, genre-defiant sound the pair have evolved together over the past decade, with contributions by drummer Josh Dion
“Marantz has a delicate, but precise, touch at the keyboard… He’s a performer who paints at the keyboard with musicality.” – Herb Boyd, DownBeat
“Along with his affable, generous spirit, [Jermyn] has refreshingly broad tastes… moreover, you can hear this reach in his music.” – Bradley Bambarger, Sound It Out
release date: 06.06.2025 via Chill Tone Label
“Pianist Julian Shore [is] a rising star with a wide gaze and a firm sense of self… a sense of personalised sophistication and quiet intelligence.” – Dan Bilawsky, All About Jazz
“[Shore’s] name belongs among the leaders of the young Jazz piano scene.” – Travis Rogers, JazzTimes
“Sub rosa” – the term conjures shadowy images of secret messages and covert operations, espionage and investigation. Jazz has always been something of a coded language, able to convey deep and complex meaning in abstract form, communicating emotions without explicit explanation. Pianist Julian Shore delivers his own collection of clandestine communications on his compelling new album Sub Rosa.

Noah Preminger‘s Ballads feature the daring saxophonist luxuriating in beauty for beauty’s sake with pianist Julian Shore, bassist Kim Cass and drummer Allan Mednard.
“[Preminger] plays with not just chops and composure, but already a distinct voice: His approach privileges mood and reflectiveness, favouring weaving lines that can be complex but are also concise, without a trace of over-playing or bravado.” – Siddhartha Miller, Boston Globe
“Mr. Preminger designs a different kind of sound for each note, an individual destiny and story.” – Ben Ratliff, The New York Times
