ABOUT COREY CHRISTIANSEN:
Following up on 2008’s Roll With It, Corey Christiansen’s critically acclaimed Origin debut, the dynamic guitarist returns with a vengeance on Outlaw Tractor, another grooving, soul-jazz offering featuring his working band, including New York organist Pat Bianchi, saxophonist David Halliday and drummer Matt Jorgensen. Moving easily from the funky “When You Want” and “Outlaw Tractor” to the driving “Big Kids” and “Starstepper,” Christiansen’s soulful compositions and precise yet earthy guitar talents define an album that’s destined to become a classic. One listen to Outlaw Tractor and you’ll understand why All About Jazz called Christiansen’s Origin debut, “one of the most satisfying soul-jazz recordings of the year.”
