Heartcore Records’ newest release available June 23, 2023 – Pre-order

Legendary guitarist and composer Kurt Rosenwinkel’s latest quartet with visionary jazz musicians Aaron Parks (Piano & Fender Rhodes), Eric Revis (Acoustic Bass), and Greg Hutchinson (Drums). Rosenwinkel returns to the hallowed ground of The Village Vanguard and presents an electrifying set of original compositions captured in 2022 of the quartet’s week-long performance run.

Kurt Rosenwinkel’s radical compositional spirit and his utterly singular voice on the guitar have made him one of modern music’s most respected figures. His latest quartet features longtime collaborators Aaron Parks on piano and Fender Rhodes and Eric Revis on acoustic bass, both of whom played on Rosenwinkel’s widely acclaimed Star of Jupiter (2012). Drummer Greg Hutchinson has collaborated with Rosenwinkel on various projects since the 1990s. Each instrumentalist in Rosenwinkel’s quartet is a generational talent, who, much like Rosenwinkel himself, has left indelible imprints on the sound of contemporary jazz. The group’s exhilarating recording Undercover: Live At The Village Vanguard is a selection of seven of Rosenwinkel’s original compositions, captured over three nights of their week-long run at the historic Village Vanguard, the legendary New York jazz club that has been host to the defining artists in jazz, including Bill Evans, John Coltrane, Sonny Rollins, Joe Henderson, and countless others. Undercover: Live At The Village Vanguard captures the joyous, visceral energy of Rosenwinkel’s masterful quartet, and easily finds its place in the continuum of historic recordings made there.
