    Default Looking for some new tunes

    I'm looking for some Jazz Mandolin albums. I am familiar with David Grisman, Jethro Burns, Tiny Moore, and Don Stiernberg. What are some other artists I should be listening to? Thank You

    Paul Glasse, but very hard to find. Tim Connell’s Stumptown Swing album.

    Aaron Weinstein has some great YouTube videos doing chord melody.

    And there’s plenty of mp3s under the ‘learn/listen’ link above.

    Aaron Weinstein's "3x3" album has been on constant rotation for me the last month. Mostly him tearing it up on fiddle, but a handful of mandolin tracks that will have you scrambling to get back to the practice room :D

    Jazz Mandolin Project with Jamie Masefield made several albums. Check them out if you’re looking for something different from the more common swing style Jazz Mandolin. They are more of a Fusion style band. I’d recommend the self titled “Jazz Mandolin Project” & “The Deep Forbidden Lake”. Forbidden Lake is less fusiony, more of an acoustic album.

    I've been listening to Michael Lamperts "Panoply" non stop. It's really good.

    Will Patton is great. He's in the Swing to Bop & Gypsy bag. He has several albums. String Theory & 6th St Runaround are both very good.

    Tim Connell is also the mandolinist in Rio Con Brio's Caprice - lovely choro tunes.

    If you're interested in learning Jazz, the 'Cafe's own Pete Martin has a lot of great content on YouTube!

    If you want some tunes that are easy to learn Jazz tunes, 2 that I've learned and really enjoy playing are La Vie en Rose (key of C in the Django Reinhardt style) and recently I've learned Grisman's Tipsy Gypsy.

    Brian Oberlin has recorded a variety of mandolin music, but "Solo Swing" fits the genre and his site has some free instructional material in the swing/jazz realm.

    Aaron,
    I just spent the day listening to this incredible creation of yours!
    My wife and I are listening to it now! It is warming up our space up her in frigid -14 centigrade Ottawa!
    Brilliant!
    Best
