Donny McCaslin live at The Triple Door

Saxophonist and composer Donny McCaslin raised his profile to the stratosphere working with David Bowie on his final album in 2016. Smartly, he's used this launching pad to display his own passionate, searching jazz on his own 2016 release, Beyond Now. The pride of Santa Cruz, California's next move was further in the pop direction. Blow is a vocals-driven collection still pushing urgently toward modern jazz in a style NPR's All Things Considered called "exhilarating art rock."
