New Orleans based keyboardist Charlie Dennard announces the release of his superb jazz organ trio, 5 O’Clock Charlie. On this recording, Dennard showcases seven original compositions and three cover tunes that capture the simple, organic quality of musicians playing together in the moment. In the late 1990’s, Charlie had a standing gig at New Orleans’ famous Funky Butt with his band, then called 5 O’Clock Charlie. Dennard is a master of the Hammond B3, using every nuance of its texture, tone, depth and feel, walking the bass to support the trio’s rhythm and driving the melodies home with heart.
This project marks a return to his roots, just as Charlie has returned to New Orleans after touring the world for the past decade. The recording is groove-based, funky and fun.
