Sinan Bakir 'On My Way' : Self Released album
Sinan Bakir has traveled from Turkey upon completing his Engineering studies to Hartford Connecticut. He's here on a scholarship to study Jazz. Since then he's created a buzz on the Connecticut Jazz scene.
Music has a formula: Understanding theory, originality, natural talent, the right chemistry, discipline and focus, incorporate your own influences, understand the business side, and most importantly, music continues to grow inside you for the rest of your life.
Sinan Bakir has accomplished and understands all of the above with his (self released) debut LP "On My Way" His well matched trio including the extremely talented Thomas Kneeland on acoustic bass and the magnificent drummer Mark Ferber, have presented us with something new, different and fresh. Jazz has evolved yet again with this new alternative. Lend an ear, it's not your parents/grandparents music anymore. If you haven't discovered Jazz yet, now is the opportune time to do so. Jazz has a new vehicle with Sinan Bakir at the helm and this generation can claim him as one of their own.
Debut LP "On My Way" .
"Stop and Go" has a delicious vibe with an example of what a perfect trio should sound like. Listen for the drum solo.
"Ice Orbits"www.myspace.com/sinanbakir has a sweet lazy day feel with layers of emotional complexities yawning and spreading it's wings.
"Evergreen" Is truly a lovely piece from start to finish with an epic bass solo.
Up coming show Oct. 17th at ButtonwoodTree in middletown, Connecticut at 7:30 PM.
