Since its inception in 1972 one of SteepleChase’s enduring policies has been to discover new talents who deserve recognition. Michael Feinberg, bassist/composer originally from Atlanta, Georgia is one of them.

Feinberg with seven leader albums up his sleeve may not be labelled as a new comer but this is his debut release on this label which prides itself with the rich tradition of great bass players such as Red Mitchell, Niels-Henning rsted Pedersen, Sam Jones, Jay Anderson, Scott Lee, just mention a few.

Feinberg leads here a formidable band with two horn-front by one of the most influential saxophonists Dave Liebman on soprano and young elite Noah Preminger on tenor whose SteepleChase debut album, by the way, is on its way.

“Feinberg’s original material is fresh and refreshingly free of empty complexity, giving his group... material that they can stretch out on without getting lost in technique. “ - Irish Times

“He’ll be attracting widespread attention before you know it.” - Jazz Espress “He is showing signs of being a towering personality on his instrument.” - Jazzdagama.com

“There are, quite simply, few players like him. A couple playing today that come to mind immediately are Dave Holland and Boris Kozlov.” - Ilikejazz.com
