Bio
In their star-studded debut album Seascape, the Atlantic Canadian supergroup, comprised of Juno Award-winning artists Mike Murley, Florian Hoefner, and Jim Vivian, delivers a truly inspiring and timeless performance, set for worldwide release on May 2nd, 2025, on Alma Records.
The group presents stunning new vocal versions of beloved modern jazz originals that showcase exceptional artistic craft and a deep musical understanding between the three members of the collective and their two legendary guest artists, Norma Winstone and Joe LaBarbera.
This recording is a real accomplishment, it has depth, balance and smarts and one gets the feeling that the reputations of these wonderful musicians could rest on their performances here alone. There’s a lot to unpack here, but not one track stays up past its bedtime. It also has a global scope, combining contributions from two Canadians, a transplanted German, an American and an Englishwoman. Kudos to them for coming together to make such inspired and timeless music
