Genre
Jazz
A technically adept, immensely intuitive bassist and pianist, David Friesen is a spiritually minded performer whose music touches upon contemporary jazz, folk, world traditions, and acoustic post-bop. A regular presence in the Pacific Northwest since his emergence in the late 1960s, Friesen initially garnered acclaim for a series of textural and earthy albums recorded with guitarist John Stowell in the '70s, and has paired for equally compelling dates with such luminaries as Chick Corea, Joe Henderson, Mal Waldron, Denny Zeitlin, and others. He remains an intensely exploratory artist, flowing from intimate solo performances, as on 2018's My Faith, My Life, to trio albums like 2019's Interaction, to the 2021 duo outing Passage.
