Jazz pianist and composer
Billy Childs follows up 2017's
Rebirth, his Grammy-winning Mack Avenue outing, with the same core quartet: saxophonist
Steve Wilson, bassist
Hans Glawischnig, and drummer
Eric Harland.
Childs grew up in a music-loving household; in addition to his parents' prodigious record collection of jazz, blues, classical, and Brazilian volumes, his older sister, playwright
Kirsten J. Childs, brought home the latest pop and soul sides. These familial influences register deep in his composing.
