Above the Clouds LP

Will Miller, the trumpeter who also plays in Whitney, leads Resavoir through a warm, groove-heavy strain of jazz that first showed up on the band's self-titled debut for International Anthem. Above the Clouds keeps that same revolving-door setup, with a rotating cast of Chicago players passing through the way they do on half the jazz-collective records out of that city. The songs stay unhurried and melodic, less about any one soloist than the whole room settling into the same slow groove.
