Jazz is, by force of tradition, a musical genre that combines different cultures simultaneously, extending along with its assimilation all over the world. A place and an era built this phenomenon that has developed like a snowball, conveying honest expression and the joy of improvisation in multiple forms. Latin America and The Caribbean Islands were among the first musical cultures that joined this amalgam, challenging entire generations of innovative and inspired musicians since Dizzy Gillespie onwards.

In this context, today we listen to Jesse Ryan, a composer and saxophonist who makes his first discographic appearance with a celebration of the cultural, artistic and rhythmic connection between the American tradition and the diversified sonority of The Carribean. "Bridges" is an album about the bonds between the past and the present, between the actual and the future self, as well as about the strong idiomatic relation between the musicians from Canada, USA, and Trinidad Tobago, effortlessly exposed in Jesse Ryan's compositions. A smile in every song, on the line depicted by the saxophones, guitars and the Afro-Cuban rhythms. A radiant perspective of today's music.
