NEW STORIES - OLD HANDS
(Published: July 02, 2018)

The skill of the Italian master bass-player known as, Manuel Muzzu M², may impress, amaze, and leave you wanting more... and all before you learn of the handicap in his right hand-which prevents movement in all but his thumb and index finger.

Lush and bold. Light and energetic. Inherently positive. While listening to Manuel Muzzu's second studio album, New Stories-Old Hands, I kept expecting-unfairly-to run across a track that didn't appeal to me, because, Jazz can be a tricky animal. It seems you either love it-or you don't. I was gladly disappointed in this expectation, as all ten tracks provide their own unique and adventurous landscape of sounds; each one underpinned with absolutely lovely jazz compositions-though still not defined by them.

Muzzu's ability to compose, as well as to bravely hand-off responsibilities to other talented players, is impressive, as he's created a collection of songs that can convince non-Jazz-lovers to become believers. And what greater feat could any artist accomplish? I know of none.
