TIMEFRAME

$15.00
Add to Cart
Time Frame - "a musical hybrid" - a sound that is blending influences from the west coast "cool jazz" scene with a new acoustic movement.

A startling solo album from Todd Phillips, one of acoustic music’s most-recorded bass players. Intimately blending his own impeccable playing with Darol Anger’s violin and Paul McCandless’ woodwinds, Phillips has arrived a fresh, open music influenced by jazz, bluegrass, and new age, but sounding like nothing else. 
"...Phillips establishes himself as a multi-instrumentalist and composer capable of blending diverse influences into a seamless musical statement.   ...a stunning collection."  - The Nashville Scene

IN THE PINES - CD

$15.00
Add to Cart
Renowned stand-up bass player Todd Phillips gathers a galaxy of his illustrious friends -Tony Trischka, Laurie Lewis, Tim O'Brien, Mike Marshall, Darol Anger and Scott Nygaard, to name a few - to play favorite old-timey ballads and dance tunes including Spotted Pony, Sugar in the Gourd, Rye Straw and Valley to Pray. 
"These old songs are art out of real life, evolved through generations by folks getting together and playing it with, and for, each other," says Todd. "They've influenced every contemporary American music form. Look at 
In the Pines -- it's been recorded by artists from Leadbelly to Connie Francis to Kurt Cobain. I wanted to add again to the lives of these tunes by playing, arranging, changing and recording them (and having fun doing it)."

$15.00

The first collaborative venture from bassist Todd Phillips, guitarist David Grier, and mandolinist Matt Flinner.

“It’s amazing how full an acoustic trio can sound…full of unexpected twists and turns…Given the reputation of these three players, it’s no surprise that the musicianship is impeccable…” -  Bluegrass Unlimited

PHILLIPS, GRIER & FLINNER "Looking back"

$15.00
Add to Cart
An amazing collection of covers, from Bill Monroe to the Beatles, Coltrane to Jim & Jesse. “…people who love great music and don’t care about labeling it will eat this one up…exquisite.”  - The Associated Press

On Looking Back, their second CD, this acoustic trio demonstrates its mastery of the three T's: taste, tone, and technique. Whether their fingers are dancing through a bluegrass standard like Bill Monroe's "Tennessee Blues" or caressing the meditative melody of jazz pianist McCoy Tyner's "Search for Peace," the three musicians fuse elements of jazz, bluegrass, and rock into intriguing new shapes......The sound is so full and rich it's hard to believe there are only three musicians here. Phillips, Grier, and Flinner called this CDLooking Back because they chose songs that they grew up playing. The tunes may be from the past, but their musical vision is decidedly facing the future. -Michael Simmons
