Bio / Background
Sut/l Vibes by The Montana Sextet beautifully highlights the legendary Vibraharpist, Vincent Montana, Jr. on a more intimate level, recalling his earlier jazz roots. Giving new life to both classic and modern standards, Montana's instrumental arrangements feature a wide variety of formats from mellow grooves to up-tempo tunes; to a Latin or a laid-back feel, with all tracks topped with spontaneous and soulful vibe solos by the master himself. This smooth and classy compilation is accessible to a wide range of jazz, R&B and Quiet Storm formats and expresses a side to Montana of which he is less known....as an extraordinary jazz musician.
“That’s What Friends Are For” is the theme song to radio host Donnie McKethan’s “Jazz and More” program on WPFW 89.3 FM (Thursdays at 7pm – Washington DC). CD Cover artwork taken from a painting by Montana himself.
