O’s Notes: Bowmanville, not the town, the Chicago-based contemporary jazz band, plays entertaining music with accessible blues and pop themes. Graham Nelson’s vocals are spot on “Georgia” and “Saint James Infirmary”. He also plays harmonica and teams up with Adelsman on “Boiano Campobosso”. Mason Jiller (g), Oliver Horton (b), Ethan Adelsman (Violin), and Noah Plotkin (d) are the other featured musicians. We also dig the blues on “Weapons of Mass Distraction”.
