...a blissful pastiche of post-hard bop, avant-garde-esque zigzagging energies and evocative moments of slow-brew introspection. -Josef Woodard Jazz Times
...growling piano, whirlpool-funk drums and the twin snake dave of sax and Douglas' punchy pleading horn, set in the echo-chamber chapel of Miles Davis' In a Silent Way." -David Fricke, Rolling Stone
Opening another chapter in his award-winning career, trumpeter, composer and bandleader Dave Douglas has announced the formation and launch of an ambitious new record label, Greenleaf Music. Douglas will follow his successful recording career at RCA-Bluebird by producing his own projects for Greenleaf, continuing his vision of an American Music moving forward in all directions. He will also serve as Artistic Director for the label, providing a supportive platform for other cutting edge artists involved in new music. Joining Douglas in this venture is Michael Friedman, an experienced label manager with a track record of success at both indy and major labels. Longtime friends, Douglas and Friedman are coming together at this time out of a shared desire to produce and release quality masters into the marketplace, to see that fresh approaches are brought to the selling of music and to create a business environment that is mutually beneficial for artist and record company.
