Dean Stockdale Trio - Promise The Moon (March 2021)

The second album from the Dean Stockdale Trio. Featuring four new originals by Dean, plus fresh arrangements on a selection of American songbook standards.

'The trio's swinging take on Gershwin's They Can't Take That Away from Me and again on an effective arrangement of On the Sunny Side of the Street are particular highlights, and the closing selection, Witchcraft, with its fleeting echoes of Moon River, make Promise the Moon a fine album.' - Bebop Spoken Here
