O’s Notes: The Lost Melody is a trio consisting of pianist Joe Davidian, bassist Dr. Jamie Ousley and drummer Austin McMahon. They have performed as a trio under their individual names over the past two decades but now perform as a band of equals on New Songs For Old Souls. The new, original tunes have catchy melodies and the quiet confidence of experience. Among the best are “Leaving Monserrat”, “Sol”, “Before I Forget” (recorded live) and the relaxed “Ready or Not”. The music swings and is easy to embrace for enjoyable listening.
