Bill Frisell recently signed with Savoy / 429 Records and released “Beautiful Dreamers” —a stunning recording consisting of new original compositions and striking reinterpretations featuring Eyvind Kang (viola) and Rudy Royston (drums). Produced by Lee Townsend, engineered by Adam Muñoz at Fantasy Studios in Berkeley and mastered with Greg Calbi at Sterling Sound in New York, “Beautiful Dreamers” captures the magic of one of Frisell's most personal statements in seamless and stimulating musical dialogue with his band mates Kang and Royston.
When listening to Bill Frisell play, it’s easy to forget you’re hearing an electric guitar. Through touch, tone and voicings that are free of the usual six-string tropes, his instrument can sound, variously, like a pedal steel, a toy piano, a string quartet, a church bell, a plane in the distance, even a human voice.
This remarkable gift continues to serve him well on his 29th solo album, whether he’s covering Stephen Foster (“Beautiful Dreamer”), Benny Goodman (“Benny’s Bugle”) or Teddy Randazzo (“Goin’ Out of My Head”), or playing his own spooky, cinematic tunes like “Baby Cry,” “Winslow Homer” and “Better Than a Machine.” The striking originality of the arrangements Frisell creates with viola player Eyvind Kang and drummer Rudy Royston can even transform ancient Tin Pan Alley fare like “Tea for Two” or “Keep on the Sunny Side” into something startlingly fresh and modern.

Ein wunderbares neues Album des legendären Jazz-Gitarristen und Grammy-Gewinners BILL FRISELL. "BEAUTIFUL DREAMERS" besteht aus 10 eigenen Songs und 6 Coverversionen (mit u. a. von Blind Willie Johnson, Benny Goodman and Stephen Foster), die FRISELL zusammen mit Eyvind Kang (Viola) und Rudy Royston (Schlagzeug) aufgenommen hat.
Produziert wurde das Album von Lee Townsend.
"In the most understated way possible, Beautiful Dreamers' special intimacy, quiet joy and constant sound of surprise represent a shift in Frisell's music. Moving away from project specificity and, instead, towards a consolidation of the guitarist's multifaceted interests, it's a beautiful way, indeed, to kick-start this relationship with a new label." (allaboutjazz. com)
"Like so many Frisell groups, this trio unfolds its music with a sound that is light yet lush, in a manner that is purposeful but unhurried... But the highlight sits in the middle of the album with a Frisell original dedicated to the late songsmith Vic Chesnutt, titled “Better Than a Machine”. In this dreamscape recording of Americana accents, the tune beams as a blast of bright, poppish sunshine. It's indeed the moment when the already attractive Beautiful Dreamers becomes even lovelier.” (www. kentucky. com)
"Recorded at Fantasy Studios and produced by longtime collaborator Lee Townsend, this record doesn’t really sound much like jazz as much as compelling, emotionally resonant, genre-free music. Sure, it swings in places, and there’s some fiery improvisation. But after decades of trodding such a brave and singular path, maybe Frisell deserves his own genre. How about “friz”? (JazzTimes (Oct. 2010)
,,Die Folk-Aspekte stehen wesentlich mehr im Vordergrund als die Jazz Momente. Man kann sich in diesen kompakten, kurzen Nummern fallen lassen. Sie riechen nach Erde, Heu und frischem Moos sowie Spaß an der Arbeit. Und doch wirkt die CD in ihrer ganzen Beiläufigkeit ehrlich und angenehm. Es ist unüberhörbar, dass Frisell hier einen Neuanfang markiert." (Jazzthing, 11 / 2010 - 01 / 2011)
