AL "DENTE" DUNN
new orleans hot jazz
Influences: Fats Domino, Professor Longhair, Dave Brubeck
Al "Dente" Dunn plays piano, directing and arranging for The Cosimo Matassa Project, a London sextet built around the New Orleans rhythm and blues and jazz recorded at J&M Studios in the late 1940s through the 1960s. Expect rollicking boogie-woogie, Crescent City piano grooves and tight horn arrangements drawn from that catalogue. Dunn's role as arranger means he reshapes these classic sides for a six-piece band, giving the material fresh structure while keeping its dance-floor energy.
