Ben Allison Releases New Album 'Moments Inside'

Jazz bassist Ben Allison has unveiled his latest album with Moments Inside, which was released on November 4th on Sonic Camera Records. Featuring Allison's quartet, the album features 8 new tracks all arranged by the bassist/composer. 

“As I sat quietly writing the music for this album, letting the ideas come to me, picking up on threads and seeing where they lead, I was expecting the music to echo the pain, anger, and sorrow that was all around. I was surprised to find that it didn’t. The music that emerged was optimistic and peaceful. Now that I think about it, I wasn’t writing what I was feeling. Instead, I was writing what I needed.” — Ben Allison, NYC, September 2021
