The RH Factor - Live in Japan 🇯🇵 

Japan!! Mark your calendars - RH Factor is coming this August 🔥🔥🔥

Aug 13 Billboard Live Tokyo
Aug 14 Summer Sonic Music Festival Tokyo
Aug 16 Billboard Live Osaka

We are beyond excited to celebrate Roy in Japan, a place he has always loved and appreciated ❤️🎺 

Roy’s relationship with Japan goes all the way back to his professional beginnings - he went to Mt. Fuji Jazz Festival at age 18 - and has only deepened over the decades. From his recordings with The Jazz Networks in the early 1990s to the countless concerts with his quintet, big band, and of course the RH Factor - Japan has always been one of Roy’s favorite places to play and visit.

Bringing Roy’s music back to his fans and friends in this way is long overdue and we can’t wait! 

Featuring:
 
Keith Anderson (ts)
Bruce Williams (as)

Jason Marshall (bs)

Wayne Tucker (tp, v)
Bobby Sparks (keys, organ)

Brian Hargrove (keys)

Todd Parsnow (gt)

Reggie Washington (b, v)

Jason JT Thomas (d, v, md)

Willie Jones (d)

And special guest Renee Neufville (v)

Bern - now available for streaming! 

The Record Store Exclusive is now also available for streaming! 🔥🔥🔥

Listening options, as well as links to vinyl and cd stores are here Roy Hargrove - Bern (Live at Bern Jazz Festival 2000) 

“Bern is a revelation — a vivid reminder that we were in the presence of one of the great bebop trumpeters at the top of his game”
Tim Larsen, Jazzviews 

“Bern is a jazz fan's holy grail. The brilliant, high-energy performance and fantastic sound quality reveal yet another dimension of Hargrove's unexaggerated genius.”
Thom Jurek, AllMusic Review 

“A timely reminder of an important post-millennial player whose absence from the current scene is keenly felt” - Kevin Le Gendre, Jazzwise

“One live album that really stands out as something special is Bern, by the late  Roy Hargrove. It’s Hargrove in his absolute prime, hitting on all cylinders, released on limited edition vinyl by Time Traveler Recordings.” - Jason Janik, D Magazine 


"...the kind of archival find that reminds listeners how electrifying Roy Hargrove could be live. (...)This set captures the late trumpeter in a moment of confident maturity, blending respect for tradition with the restless creativity that defined his career."
Pierre Giroux, All About Jazz
