This past weekend
smooth jazz artist, Geoff Alpert, hit
the number one spot on the Regional San Diego Jazz Reverbnation Charts! The hard work
that Geoff has put in to creating his debut album is really paying off. Being a
self taught trombone player, Alpert spent many years perfecting his sound. He
played tirelessly for years, but then took a break from his playing in the
early 80’s to be a devoted father and husband.
After the painful
passing of his wife in 2002, he went back to his roots and picked up the
trombone once again and used the music as a vessel to convey his emotions. His
newest album “Open Your Heart” comes at you with a mix of jazz, pop, R&B, funk and Latin
sounds that can speak to anybody who listens. The album highlights Alpert’s
exceptional trombone playing, which is something that you don’t hear regularly.
On a side note,
if you happen to be in the Los Angeles area
around May 1st, Geoff will be having a CD release party at the E Spot Lounge at
Vitello’s in Studio City , CA at 8 pm. So come join in on the celebration
of his debut album! And before you go, you can listen to the beautiful
collection of ten songs on iTunes,
CD Baby and Amazon.
Be sure to keep
up with Geoff on his official website http://www.geoffalpert.com
for any updates.
