Japanese smooth jazz saxophonist Michiyo Kitagawa has released a new EP, featuring 3 new tracks. Roberto Vally was in charge of the production of this EP. Michiyo is joined on the beautiful, "mellow" title track by Mark Etheredge on piano, Rhodes and strings; by Roberto Vally on bass, drums, percussion and additional keyboards; and by Morris O'Connor on guitar. 'Crusing Ventura' then follows a little more up-tempo, with keyboards by Leon Bisquera, guitar by Michael Sims and bass & percussion by Roberto Vally. This pleasant track invites you to take a ride! Finally, "West Coast Rendezvous" closes in mid-tempo with keyboards by Tom Schuman, guitar by Carlyle Bariteau and bass, drums & percussion by Roberto Vally. A great EP, and I wish Michiyo delivered more new songs, because this tastes like more!
