Linda May Han Oh – ‘Aventurine’ (Album Review)

May 16, 2019 By Anthony Dean-Harris

Every time bassist Linda May Han Oh releases an album, it's always filled to the brim with beat and soul. Her compositions have the complex ideas one would expect of contemporary jazz, but there's always a sensibility that this is music it had to reach the audience, it has to make the toes tap.

Linda May Han Oh – “Aventurine” (Stream)

April 30, 2019 By Anthony Dean-Harris
