Alex Tremblay Jazz – Part Two (S4 | E206)
The second of two shows with jazz bassist Alex Tremblay. Alex is on the La Reserve record label.
I focus on one artist. It could be one song or a body of work. An album or greatest hits. The point of these shows is do dig deep into what makes the music work so well, be it melody, style, lyrics, emotion or other contributing factors.
