Acclaimed jazz pianist Michael Wolff has confirmed a February 7th, 2020
release date for his joyful new album, ‘Bounce’. Exuberant, beautiful and able to convey a range of emotions, ‘Bounce’ reflects Wolff’s upbeat state of mind following his ‘miraculous’ recovery from aggressive cancer. He comments, “Isn’t it great to be alive? I’m celebrating life every day. This album is dedicated to that celebration. Come Bounce with us!!!!!! I have the good fortune to play with these fantastic musicians: Ben Allison on bass and Allan Mednard on drums. Their playing, ideas and vibes imbue this music with creativity and soul. It's really a listenable album. I thought about what I'd like to listen to at home, and tried to make that album.”

‘Bounce’ will be released by Sunnyside Records, and features an engaging range of songs, including the aptly named ‘Cool Kids’, written by Wolff’s son Nat (and featuring Nat on lead vocals as well). Other tracks evoke ‘West Side Story’ or nods to the Great American Songbook. Album
highlights include the memorable title track, the lovely ballad ‘Long Lost’,
the strong ‘Caribbean Rain Dance’ and ‘Omar Sharif’ by David Yazbek,
from THE BAND'S VISIT musical. In all, the album is mostly original
compositions by Wolff, a tune by Ben Allison, and two covers: ‘Omar
Sharif’ and the standard, ‘You and The Night and The Music’.

Wolff notes, “‘Bounce’ is filled with music like the music I grew up
listening to and playing. It transcends jazz and it feels like the best
album I’ve ever made. It also comes at such a perfect time for me. It
expresses my inner soul and the joy of living and making music. It’s the
most important release of my life.”

The upcoming album and new tour dates mark a fresh start for Wolff,
following his recent recovery from cancer. He comments, “I’m so happy to
be back playing and recording and feeling well again. It’s been a
monstrous journey, which I wouldn’t wish on my worst enemy. But the
outcome is miraculous.”
