SUMMARY:Yasmin Williams
DESCRIPTION:Yasmin Williams is an innovative guitarist and composer whose expansive instrumental style has made her one of the most distinctive voices in contemporary acoustic music. Her latest album Acadia\, released on Nonesuch Records\, marks an exciting evolution from solo performer to collaborative artist\, featuring notable musicians including Aoife O’Donovan and Immanuel Wilkins.

Following her acclaimed 2021 album Urban Driftwood\, Acadia expands her sound into three distinct musical landscapes\, moving from folk traditions to atmospheric soundscapes and experimental arrangements\, balancing virtuosic precision with luminous\, floating melodies.

SUMMARY:John Pizzarelli Presents "Dear Mr. Bennett" 
DESCRIPTION:GRAMMY®-winning guitarist\, vocalist\, and producer John Pizzarelli celebrates the legacy of the legendary Tony Bennett with Dear Mr. Bennett\, a heartfelt tribute released March 3\, 2026 via Green Hill Music. The recording features Pizzarelli’s trio\, bassist Mike Karn and pianist Isaiah J. Thompson\, performing timeless songs made famous by Bennett with warmth\, swing\, and lyrical beauty. For Pizzarelli\, Bennett was more than an influence. His father\, guitarist Bucky Pizzarelli\, frequently performed with the iconic singer\, and John later had the opportunity to accompany Bennett himself. The admiration was mutual; Bennett attended several of Pizzarelli’s performances and even sketched the artwork that appears on the album’s cover. Reflecting on Bennett’s enduring impact\, Pizzarelli says\, “Tony’s artistry was just so magnificent. And he was able to continually reinvent himself.” The trio will tour this repertoire worldwide throughout 2026 and 2027.
