Details:
ORIGINAL WORKS OF ART, the debut album from tenor saxophonist Art Grider, is best described in one word - BLUESIFUSIFUNKABOSSABALLADACIOUS!! All of the songs on this album are original compositions and reflect the nature of Art and his group, funky yet firmly rooted in postbop to fusion jazz styles. Art counts Dexter Gordon, Stan Getz, Joe Henderson, Charlie Parker, and John Coltrane as his major influences.

Anchored by a strong rhythm section (bass-Chris Enghauser, drums-Chris Hood, keyboards-Tracy Reynolds) the album erupts into a smorgasbord of delicious sounds and delectable rhythms sure to make you smile and help carry you through the day. Greg Clinton (guitar, flute) provides awesome comping and solo work. Pat Strawser adds to the mix with some smooth organ comping as well. And as if this isn''t enough, Michael Westbrook and Pat elevate the spirit of this album to new heights with their own compositions (Michael - Westbrook Shuffle; Pat - Sea of Dreams). Michael also takes over the guitar responsibilities in his composition while Greg switches to flute. The result - AMAZING!!!

Art Grider is a muscian with a split personality (his day job is as an associate professor of nutritional biochemistry at a major research university) who has played behind the scenes with various church bands around the country. Here he is playing with his bandmates from ZamarAthens, a band that has performed as a part of the Blue Sky Concert Series on College Square in Athens, GA, in Borders Bookstore, and at various weddings and parties in the Athens, GA area. Art has also been featured on the guitarist Greg Clinton’s album, Essays and Contemplations (track 3: Interplanetary Jam).
