Recorded over the span of a week in Havana, Cuba, the US based trio recruited local Cuban musicians including pianists Rember Duharte and Harold López-Nussa to create the 9 song collection. The result is a true Cuban American musical collaboration that defies political borders.
Praise for Ninety Miles
“The band name doubles as a title for the energetic new Concord release by the vibraphonist Stefon Harris, the saxophonist David Sánchez and the trumpeter Christian Scott. It’s a collaboration born of common interest in Latin music — particularly of Cuba, where the album was recorded with accomplished local musicians.”
- The New York Times
“Ninety miles isn't that far geographically, but politically, it can seem impossible to bridge. With this album, Harris, Sanchez and Scott join the long list of artists who have traversed that gap not with words, but with remarkable music.”
- NPR Music
“…the project extends a larger, more organic story—of jazz as a conduit for connection between the U.S. and Cuba and an expression of common roots.”
- The Wall Street Journal
