Monty Alexander • Harlem-Kingston Express Live!



Monty Alexander celebrated his 50th year of phenomenal musicianship by releasing two outstanding recordings: the now Grammy® nominated Harlem-Kingston Express Live! and Uplift (via Jazz Legacy Productions). Co-Produced by Jana Herzen, Katherine Miller, and Dizzy's Club Coca-Cola's Todd Barkan (who introduced Motéma and Monty to each other), the Best Reggae Album nomination is truly a fantastic accomplishment in what has been a hugely successful year for the pianist. Upon its release, Harlem-Kingston Express Live! dominated the airwaves, reaching #1 on both Jazzweek's Jazz and World radio charts, while press buzzed over the album's Jamaican influences, which include elements of mento, ska as well as R&B.

Monty Alexander celebró sus 50 años de fenomenal musicalidad lanzando dos grabaciones sobresalientes: la ahora nominada a los Grammy® Harlem-Kingston Express Live! y Uplift (a través de Jazz Legacy Productions). Coproducida por Jana Herzen, Katherine Miller y Todd Barkan de Dizzy's Club Coca-Cola (quien presentó a Motéma y Monty entre sí), la nominación al Mejor Álbum de Reggae es realmente un logro fantástico en lo que ha sido un año de gran éxito para la pianista. Tras su lanzamiento, Harlem-Kingston Express Live! dominó las ondas, alcanzando el primer puesto en las listas de éxitos de Jazzweek y World radio, mientras que la prensa se interesó por las influencias jamaicanas del álbum, que incluyen elementos de mento, ska y R&B.
