PATRICK YANDALL
A New Day
Patrick Yandall Music

At the risk of sounding cliché, I have to tell you that San Diego’s Patrick Yandall has outdone himself on his newest release. A NEW DAY is fresh, strong, energetic, and incredibly appealing… the epitome of captivating Smooth Jazz guitar. This is the album that’ll put him over the top and insure that everyone who’s a fan of this format a) knows who he is, and b) wants his music in their collection. The 11 originals on this disc are at once groove-laden and sensual, ranging in flavor from Jazz, R&B, and Soul to Latin and Blues. The title track (radio’s first single) sets an impressive pace, featuring what Patrick calls an EW&F, R&B groove, and the tunes stay consistently strong clear through to the end piece… which is an impressive salute to his mentor, the late Carl Evans Jr…. “Mr. Fattburger.” Patrick Yandall’s A NEW DAY is an absolute must-have! ~SCOTT O'BRIEN
