Alejandro produced and played bass on this album by the wonderful trumpet player, James Suggs on Arbors Records. It features Herlin Riley on drums, Seth Finch on piano/keys, Jeremy Carter on sax, Allison Nash on vocals and Brandon Conley on trumpet. The album is a mixture of standards and soul/pop classics that showcases Suggs’ knack to interpret melodies masterfully regardless of era or style, as well as his tasteful improvisation chops.
Alejandro was interviewed by Nanette Wiser of Radio St. Pete and spoke about many things, including future projects and the importance of community in music.
La Lucha releases their newest album “La Lucha Plays The 80s”, a collection of arrangements of songs from the 1980s featuring Ona K, James Suggs, J-ME, Jeremy Carter, Guianna and Songbird Shella. All tracks were filmed and recorded live.
