Artist Biography
Dave Douglas is among the most original trumpeters and composers of his generation with a broad, unaffected stylistic range offering expressive manipulations of timbre and pitch; his music reflects a panoply of influences including Igor Stravinsky, Stevie Wonder, John Coltrane, and Lester Bowie. During the '90s, Douglas played in and recorded historic albums with John Zorn's Masada and led Tiny Bell Trio. Before founding Greenleaf Music in 2005, he recorded dozens of albums as a leader for several labels, among them 1997's seminal Stargazer and 1999's Leap of Faith for Arabesque, and 2001's Witness, 2002's Freak In, and 2003's Strange Liberation for Bluebird. His Greenleaf dates include 2006's Meaning and Mystery, 2009's Spirit Moves, and 2015's High Risk. Overcome appeared in 2020 and was followed by Other Worlds, from his and saxophonist Joe Lovano's Sound Prints ensemble. If There Are Mountains, in duo with pianist Elan Mehler, appeared in 2023.
