These guys are absolutely fantastic - plenty of filmed sessions on their youtube - they also have a bandcamp and some tracks on spotify! Wonderful blend of classic hard bop and some more modern trends in jazz :)

Unbelievably good jazz tracks I got hip to from obsessively listening to the STL public jazz radio station 90.7 KWMU-2. Always nice to find something with sub 5k listens on Spotify. Go to "Red Apple Sweet" and "The Brite Side".

Cannot get over them, even better with someone who isn’t into jazz and watching them get converted. The vibe is insane, the players’ commitment to their instruments takes over the entire audience. It makes you feel like you’re part of something big. Cannot recommend enough

I've already Rec'd this group in the past but I have to share this too. My favourite current jazz group just put out a collection of interpretations of Kendrick Lamar's work. The *Meet the Grahams* track is unbelievable but my favourite is probably their cover of *All the Stars*.

I'm not obsessed with it but it's always sweet when the barista does something cool. This one yesterday made me smile because after seeing a few others I realised the guy was doing Pokémon! Fairly certain mine is mew or Mewtwo, I saw him do a horsea, pikachu, and squirtle too...

Koudelka was a photographer who documented Europe from the 60s onwards, recording the lives of travelling people, Soviet invasions, struggles with poverty, and more. He later became a member of the Magnum society and continued his work into old age. If you have the time, it's really worth digging into his work as he had a real eye for striking images that provide a lot of context for the situation he was in. He used to travel with very little besides a sleeping bag and camera so he often experienced the harsher side of life while on the job. At times his photos were smuggled out of the soviet borders, and published anonymously, to keep him safe. Check the link for a good starting point on Magnum's website!
