,: A deeply melodic guitarist along the lines of Grant Green. :,
: Apicella faithfully has sought to channel an era of American :
:' music when hard-bop and r&b reigned - But the guitarist still ':
,: manages to keep things fresh. - DownBeat. New York guitarist :,
: Charlie Apicella's musical voice runs historically deep, with :
:' his 7 recordings to date highly focused on celebrating the ':
,: elders of jazz, R&B, and the Blues. His band, Iron City, has :,
: been with him the whole way, providing a base context for all of :
:' his projects. With "Destiny Calling," this hard bop rhythm ':
,: section drives headlong into the future as the elder masters of :,
: The Griots Speak draw from a lifetime of experience in :
:' communication with the ancestors. Trail blazing percussionist ':
,: Juma Sultan formed the Griots with saxophonist Daniel Carter, :,
: bassist William Parker and Apicella to help celebrate a :
:' patriarch of New York's '60's loft scene. Simultaneously fluid, ':
,: extroverted, light, confrontational, and meditative, their music :,
: is poetry in motion. They create spontaneously, as they move :
:' between instruments, including a variety of indigenous ':
,: instruments which convey a pan-ancestral tapestry at the core of :,
: their sound. For Apicella, it's the realization of lessons :
:' learned through his studies with Yusef Lateef and the ':
,: opportunity to further amplify the legacy. :,
