Bradley Leighton’s third
album, Back To The Funk, was released
in early 2006. Leighton co-wrote five songs for the collection of
R&B, funk, jazz and pop jams, which were produced and arranged
by Allan Phillips. Heading to radio first will be “Runaway,”
a vintage blast from the past with a modern twist that takes flight
with an aggressive rhythmic groove, a cinematic chorus, and fierce
alto flute and sweltering sax soloing.
In the contemporary jazz
world - where guitars and saxes currently reign supreme - flutist
Bradley Leighton brings a fresh, new voice to this popular genre
of music. Upbeat, funky urban grooves and the soulful, mellow sound
of his alto flute combine to make this collection of tunes a refreshing
change of pace in a sometimes mundane and perfunctory genre.
