O’s Notes: Drummer, producer Jeff Hamilton and his trio featuring bassist Jon Hamar and pianist Tamir Hendelman bring us Merry & Bright, a swinging Holiday set. They jazz up ten classic Christmas selections that can easily be appreciated year-round. The approach is soft but powerful with all of the boxes checked. “Let It Snow! Let It Snow! Let It Snow!” Is a prime example with each of the musicians rotating through the spotlight!
