Evanescent by Jay Sanders
Jay Sanders is a guitarist, bassist, composer, producer, and bandleader based in Asheville, N.C. A stylistic virtuoso, Jay’s music is characterized by an effortless ability to fuse his jazz, rock, blues, metal, and African influences with years of improvisational study and training. His compositions trend toward the melodic and sublime; expertly traversing between peaceful melodicism, free jazz, and cacophonous noise music. Jay claims Sonny Sharrock, John McLaughlin, Bill Frisell, Dave Holland, Ornette Coleman, and John Hartford among his primary influences.
His solo recording debut, Evanescent, will be released on July 12, 2024. An exploration of influences as well as a meditation on impermanence, Evanescent consists of seven original compositions and a tone poem dedicated to the Voyager spacecraft. The music is brought to life through the help of Jay’s long-time collaborators Justin Ray, Jacob Rodriguez, Casey Driessen, Steve Alford, Zack Page, Evan Marin, and Tyler Housholder.
