”Two Roads” represents a bold new musical direction for Dann Zinn, embodying his dedication to continued artistic exploration. Over the past two decades, Zinn has crafted a unique body of original work, influenced by Jan Garbarek”s Nordic folk-inflected compositions and his own roots in American Jazz and East Bay Funk. The album features esteemed collaborators
Rachel Z, known for her work with Steps Ahead, and
Omar Hakim, famed for his performances with Sting and Branford Marsalis.
The album”s opening track, ”Yarak,” showcases Hakim”s dynamic drumming and Zinn”s soaring saxophone solo. ”The Sound of Ice Melting” highlights Zinn”s love for folk melodies, while ”Pros and Cons” echoes the influence of Lenny Pickett. The title track, inspired by Robert Frost”s poem, features Denson”s wordless vocals and a rich, rhythmic backdrop. With compositions ranging from the cinematic ”A Revolution of One” to the evocative ”Prayer Again,” Zinn”s ”Two Roads” is a profound musical journey.
