Criss Cross Jazz 1303 CD

Mike Moreno

Third Wish

An increasingly visible force on the New York scene in recent years, guitarist Mike Moreno makes his Criss Cross debut on a program mixing choice selections from the jazz songbook (Shorter, Henderson, Strayhorn) and his own evocative originals.

Propelled by Moreno's fellow Houstonian, drummer Kendrick Scott, and young veterans pianist Kevin Hays and bassist Doug Weiss, Moreno plays throughout with characteristic melodic elegance, rhythmic drive, and harmonic nuance.
