about

Jeryl Johnston brings together a cast of staple musicians from the NYC Latin big band tradition for the inaugural single release of Grupo Yanine, presenting a piece that is both a critique and a celebration of the musical community from which it evolved and for which it has been written.

The title stems from a desire to take back a phrase often used with questionable intent and employ it to both comment upon the lack of inclusion of women in Latin music, and to celebrate the listeners and musicians who support them.

While indebted to the style of Machito and his cohort, this driving chart brings a fresh harmonic approach to the genre along with an unusually constructed form devised to highlight soloists in the band including John Walsh on trumpet, Al Acosta on alto sax, Demitrios Kehagias on trombone and Louis Bauzo on percussion.
