Review: Songs in a Minor Key introduces contemporary jazz to a blend of rich tones that are imaginative, crisp, highly harmonic, and solid. Yet you will find a twist of pop and rock in both covers: Come as You Are and Message in a Bottle.

Zach Nielsen provides the listening audience with superb piano stylings whose structures create beautiful lines, swinging stretches and intriguing paths. The dynamic beats of both Byrd and Acosta provide a rhythmic cadence of beautiful proportions while Glynn’s versatile movement along the fret board gets your foot tapping. Hands down this album gets 5 stars it’s full sound will make you leave your iPod on repeat mode.
