Welcome to a new edition of the Neon Jazz interview series with Hannibal, MO-born, New York City Jazz Drummer, Artist, Composer, Bandleader & Educator Matt Kane.. This 47-year-old journey jazz cat is at a point in his career where he takes charge from behind the drums, as a jazz artist, composer, and bandleader. The Other Side of the Story is his 4th Album and the first with entirely original compositions from a guy who grew up surrounded by corn fields in Hannibal, Missouri, idolized Tom Sawyer, and played his first gig as a teen aboard a riverboat on the Mississippi. The new project is produced by legendary drummer Michael Carvin and features three fellow Midwesterners: Peter Schlamb on vibraphone, Vic Jerus on guitar, and Mark Peterson on bass, as well as Klaus Mueller on piano. The new album contains a wide swath of rhythm, not just the traditional jazz rhythm folks are used to. He talked to Neon Jazz at length about this project ..Click here to listen to the interview.
