O’s Notes: Powerlines is a quartet featuring composers Peter Kienle (g, voice) and Monika Herzig (keyboards, voice) with Scott Panera (b) and Josh Roberts (d). They present a retro jazz-fusion album that will resonate with many contemporary jazz fans. While they go back they also move forward to mix in some of the flavors of modern, contemporary jazz. For sure The Time Flies, especially when the music is good! We liked “Promises of Spring“ & “So-So-La-La” with guest Pascal Paul (vocals, whistling). “Schoolbus Rock”, “Fly High” and “Matterhorn” also resonated with us.
