• Rez Abbasi belongs to an emerging group of second-generation Indian<br />
musicians, together with Vijay Iyer and Rudresh Mahanthappa.<br />
• Won second place in the 2011 Down Beat Critics Poll, category “Rising Star.”<br />
• This prepossessing guitarist has made a string of worthy albums in recent<br />
years, and on Continuous Beat he connects with an especially responsive<br />
rhythm team: bassist John Hébert and drummer Satoshi Takeishi.<br />
• Their rapport, and the choice of repertoire, nods to the memory of Paul<br />
Motian, a master drummer and composer/bandleader with whom Abbasi<br />
had plans to collaborate before Motian’s death last year.<br />
• Promotion by Matt Merewitz, Fully Altered Media.<br />
Rez Abbasi: guitars<br />
John Hérbert: bass<br />
Satoshi Takeishi: drums<br />

• Seductive vocalist Roberta Donnay and her Prohibition Mob Band swing<br />
mightily on this exquisitely arranged, authentic collection of vintage jazz,<br />
blues, and swing. The set features rare gems from the 1920s and ’30s plus<br />
Donnay’s excellent, jazzy horn-soaked original “Empty Bed Blues.”<br />
• This award-winning singer/songwriter/producer has beguiled audiences<br />
internationally performing jazz, blues, and original music. Her national<br />
fanbase includes loyal fans of the oft-touring band and folk-jazz icon Dan<br />
Hicks & The Hot Licks, with whom she’s been a charming “Lick-ette” and<br />
featured soloist for seven years.<br />
• Features Grammy®-nominated composer Wayne Wallace, Michael<br />
Barsimanto (Billy Preston, Jean-Luc Ponty, Freddie Hubbard), and Rich<br />
Armstrong (Thomas Dolby, Boz Scaggs, Tower of Power).<br />
• As a marketing tool, a series of 12 behind-the-scenes shorts—featuring<br />
interviews plus footage from the studio—provide background and insight<br />
into the making of this record. The shorts will be released serially, once<br />
every 10–14 days, to provide long-term interest and visibility for the project.<br />
• Terrestrial and online campaign via Go Media PR.<br />
