Our album is out today on @freshsoundrecords !
Have a listen via the streaming link in my bio or send one of us a message if you’d like a CD copy and we’ll get one to you. The CDs include artwork by @bobwiebes and liner notes by yours truly.
The track list includes tunes associated with Horace Silver, Benny Goodman, Dusty Springfield, Frank Sinatra and Nat King Cole, and Frankie Pfeiffer of Paris Move had these kind words to say about it:
“there is something quietly radical about a record this confident in the virtues of restraint, swing and beauty, and that’s why this album succeeds because of its honesty. It captures a fleeting moment between musicians, unpolished in the best sense, grounded in shared language, and rich with the kind of subtle interplay that only emerges when players truly listen to one another.”
We’ll be touring in late June/early July with Eric and Darryl, finishing with a London album launch on Thurs 2 July at @pizzaexpresslive Soho. Tickets on sale now!
The Hi-Stakes from Amsterdam bring explosive Rhythm & Blues, soulful blues ballads and grooving boogaloos straight to the stage. Fronted by vocalist and tenor saxophonist Sam Ghezzi, the quintet combines vintage sounds inspired by Louis Jordan, Percy Mayfield and late 50s Blue Note Records with original songs full of passion, irony and energy. Their distinctive sound is driven by a powerful twin tenor sax section and moves effortlessly between jazz and blues.

Come through
Tonight! The newest jazz jamsession of Amsterdam!
Led by guitarist Linus Eppinger.
Every Friday night, from midnight into the late hours.
Jazz was never just music.
It was a meeting place,
where people of different backgrounds, cultures, and identities
found each other beyond labels, beyond judgment.
In dimly lit rooms and crowded basements,
a community was formed.
Not by sameness, but by sound, by freedom, by listening.
Through times of struggle, oppression, and war,
jazz became a quiet form of resistance
A way to speak when words were not enough,
to hold on to humanity when the world tried to divide it.
And tonight, we play again.
See you in the late hours. ❤️
