O’s Notes: Tenor saxophone is Ryan Berry breathes warm tones into his horn while leading a band with Jacob Melsha (tb), Charles Colizza (g), Chris Smith (b), and Matty Grattan (d). They start out swinging on “I’ll Close My Eyes” in this brief set of five songs over 27.5 minutes. We liked the guitar work on “Till There Was You”, and the harmonized horns on “If I Did Not Speak Out” Leaving us wanting more.
