Preservation HALL JAZZ BAND “So It Is” LP

So It Is puts the focus on New Orleans ensemble jazz, brass-band tradition, collective improvisation, and Afro-Caribbean rhythm.

• The band mixes New Orleans brass tradition with Afro-Cuban rhythm, modern groove, and all-original material.
• Ben Jaffe anchors the ensemble on bass and tuba, while musicians including Charlie Gabriel, Branden Lewis, Kyle Roussel, and Clint Maedgen add reeds, brass, and piano.
• The record was praised for showing Preservation Hall as a living, evolving band rather than a museum piece.

For fans of The Dirty Dozen Brass Band, Rebirth Brass Band, and Dr. John.
