2016 JUNO-nominated trumpeter Al Muirhead's most ambitious project to date, 'Northern Adventures - The Canada Sessions Vol. 1' is a collection of standards pairing him with some of Canada's jazz greats! A western Canadian jazz icon, who recently came to wider prominence in North America with the release of his debut album 'It's About Time' at the age of 80 years old, Al Muirhead is now making up for lost time with his third release in two years. Featuring five different small ensembles of both old friends and new, Al harkens back to his youth, calling standards from the Great American Songbook live in the studio. 'Northern Adventures' features jazz performed in the way that artform began, with spontaneity and joy, and with a command of the music that only players of the caliber that Al has assembled can. 'Northern Adventures - The Canada Sessions Vol. 1' brings together a veritable who's who of the Canadian jazz scene in five small groups.
