He executes intricate solos with ease, plays gorgeous ballads in a tasteful manner, and never lacks flair or sensitivity.” – JazzTimes Trumpeter Jeremy Pelt celebrates the release of a new album, Our Community Will Not Be Erased, featuring a remarkable quartet: Pianist Orrin Evans, and two living legends: bassist Buster Williams and drummer Lenny White. One of the leading trumpet voices of his generation, Pelt’s approach and style place him firmly in the tradition of jazz giants like Lee Morgan and Freddie Hubbard, while pushing the boundaries of modern jazz. Pelt is a captivating exploration that blends the rich textures of 21st-century jazz with the dynamic possibilities of electronic synthesized sound. This collection of mostly original compositions highlights Pelt's masterful artistry as both an instrumentalist and a composer, committed to expanding the sonic landscape of jazz. Burning Ambulance aptly describes Pelt as “on an extended journey, capturing snapshots along the way,” urging jazz fans to join him on this musical adventure.
