ALEX SKOLNICK TRIO

New album 'Last Day In Paradise' out now!

About Me

Introducing 'Last Day In Paradise' - the latest album by the Alex Skolnick Trio. Featuring seven originals and three arrangements of rock/metal standards (a concept upon which the trio has built a formidable reputation), LDIP is their most unique and cutting edge recording to date. For this album, the group has gone beyond the traditional trio format, incorporating voice, slide guitar, loops, and other sonic embellishments, enhancing the strong, melodic compositions. Also included are a Latin arrangement of the Testament anthem Practice What You Preach and an electronica inspired version of the Rush classic Tom Sawyer­ both incorporating modern jazz harmony.Booking contact: Rachel Martinez / [email protected] / www.myspace.com/rachelmcp / 212-533-7406
