about

In May of 2018, “side three: New Work” was the last show in a three performance residency at the Ivy Room in Albany California curated and titled by drummer percussionist Suki O’Kane. It was also the first time the ensemble met with Vinny Golia leading to the session of this recording. It seemed an appropriate title as the record features an eclectic cross section of original compositions inspired by a variety of things including late 60’s and 70’s films, civil rights, visionary poetry and science fiction.

A multi-woodwind performer, Vinny Golia's recordings have been consistently picked by critics and readers of music journals for their yearly "ten best" lists. In 1990 he was the winner of the Jazz Times TDWR award for Bass Saxophone. In 1998 he ranked 1st in the Cadence Magazine Writers & Readers Poll and has continually placed in the Downbeat Critic's Poll for Baritone & Soprano Saxophone. In 1999 Vinny won the LA Weekly’s Award for "Best Jazz Musician". Jazziz Magazine has also named him as one of the 100 people who have influenced the course of Jazz in our Century. In 2006 The Jazz Journalists Association honored him with a Lifetime Achievement Award.
