New Orleans and world audiences have been listening to and watching the remarkable rise of drummer Joe Dyson for almost three decades. At age two, he began playing in church, an element that remains in his often emotional approach to music. He received greater visibility and instruction under the wing of master saxophonist Donald Harrison Jr., and Dyson has been heard regularly and recorded with the legendary organist Dr. Lonnie Smith and trumpeter Christian Scott aTunde Adjuah.
Look Within stands as Dyson’s debut release under his own name and reveals his huge talents as a composer. While many tunes feature ensemble work with his strong band, pianist Oscar Rossignoli, saxophonist Stephen Gladney, trumpeter Stephen Lands, bassist Jasen Weaver and percussionist Daniel Sadownick, it is not difficult to grasp that the brilliant Dyson is at the helm.
