“My latest project is affectionately called Yankee Go Home – which for me is a nod to us, ‘Yankees’, who pick up the music of our homeland. This band plays Roots-Rock-Jazz, which is one way to define it, although I honestly hate to do that! The concept is to cover Americana/Rock hits and jazz folk songs, plus some of my own songs written in that style. I rediscover a lot of my teen Rock ‘n Roll roots, influenced by my 50 years of jazz practice. The band consists of Jon Cowherd (keyboard player with Brian Blade Fellowship and Cassandra Wilson, among others), Vicente Archer (contrabassist with Robert Glasper, Louis Hayes and Scofield Combo 66, etc.), Josh Dion (drums) and myself – guitarist John Scofield. These guests are remarkably versatile, just the best when it comes to interactive, creative play. We explore rock, funk, country, jazz and free music and have a fantastic time. I am excited about this collaboration.
