SUMMARY:CURVEBALL: Kalia Vandever
DESCRIPTION:Enthusiastic Eunuch Presents \n\nKali Vandever (International Anthen) \n\nKalia Vandever (they/them) is a trombonist and composer living in New York. Praised by AllMusic as “a master musician and composer” and “a singular talent\,” Vandever’s approach to the trombone is distinctive\, defined by their sonorous tone and lyrical voicing. They lean into the challenges of the instrument and allow patience and melody to guide their process. \nVandever’s music has quickly and widely gained traction in the last few years despite the fact that their style has been consistently difficult to pin down\, boasting a compositional scope ranging from the palatial modern jazz of their quartet work (notably featuring guitarist Mary Halvorson) to the synthetic\, gauze-like droning ambience of their solo material\, their compositional practice draws from their love of both songs and improvisation\, creating a landscape of sounds that resonate in the body and hold the listener. This dexterity has not gone unnoticed\, with The Wire asserting\, “Vandever has never sounded more assured and in control of their many strengths.” \nIn Bloom\, their 2019 debut album\, and its followup Regrowth (New Amsterdam\, 2022) swiftly established Vandever as a compelling bandleader in jazz circles—a group format they returned to on Another View (Northern Spy\, 2025) and still engage in regularly in live performance. \nRecognized by NPR as part of the “new class of jazz artists pushing the music forward\,” Vandever’s debut solo album We Fell In Turn (AKP Records\, 2023) signaled a separate path being explored simultaneously. The album features solo works for trombone\, voice and electronics\, laying the groundwork for a new sound to be further developed. Mana\, Vandever’s new album on Chicago’s International Anthem Recording Co\,\, leans into that development: solo trombone filtered through a well-dialed pedalboard\, manipulated live; spare piano as an intermittent anchor; electroacoustic interplay simultaneously echoing and transforming the long-note melodicism of Vandever’s melancholic brass work; head-on\, unambiguous\, and deeply personal lyricism. \nAfter attending Juilliard\, they began touring and performing internationally both solo and with their quartet. Their work as a side-person is expansive\, performing with artists ranging from Shabaka\, Joel Ross\, and Immanuel Wilkins\, to Harry Styles\, Japanese Breakfast\, and Moses Sumney. Vandever has been commissioned to write works for groups and individuals including Tesla Quartet\, The Westerlies\, Katherine Kyu Hyeon Lim\, and Hats & Heels Duo and is also a founding member of tilt—a Brooklyn-based collective with Isabel Crespo Pardo and Carmen Quill.

SUMMARY:Jamie Duffy
DESCRIPTION:At just 25 years old\, Jamie Duffy has rapidly ascended to the elite tier of global multi instrumentalists\, amassing over 160 million streams on his debut single alone. Seamlessly bridging the gap between traditional and modern composition\, Jamie has become a formidable force on the international stage\, redefining what it means to be a “classical” artist in the 21st century. \nJamie’s transition from a viral sensation to a live powerhouse has been marked by a string of prestigious\, sold-out headline shows across the UK and Ireland\, including a landmark performance at Dublin’s National Concert Hall. His debut album has been met with equal acclaim\, breaking into the Top 10 of the Irish Official Charts and the UK Classical Charts. Notably\, Jamie held the distinction of being the only artist with an instrumental album on the Official Irish Charts\, a testament to his unique ability to captivate a mainstream audience. \nWhile his debut single ‘Solas’ provided a meteoric introduction to his sound\, the feature film ‘500 Miles’ is the perfect scoring debut for Jamie\, which showcases another side to his musical world. This world includes scoring projects and bespoke creative endeavours that sit between his primary artistic pursuits\, ensuring every note he releases contributes to an ever evolving and authentic journey.

SUMMARY:Duke Special
DESCRIPTION:Duke Special’s Songs from the Deep Forest returns for its 20th anniversary not just as a nostalgic revisit\, but as a quiet triumph of enduring artistry. What stands out most is how confidently the album still holds its identity—unapologetically whimsical\, tender\, and rich with imagination. \n  \nDuke Special’s songwriting feels even more special in hindsight. His ability to weave poetic storytelling with memorable\, piano-driven melodies gives the album a warmth that few records manage to sustain over time. His voice—distinctive\, expressive\, and full of character—draws you in completely\, making every lyric feel personal. \nRather than feeling dated\, the album’s understated arrangements now read as intentional and timeless. There’s a bravery in its softness\, a refusal to chase trends\, and that’s exactly why it resonates so deeply two decades later. This anniversary edition is less a reminder of the past and more a celebration of an artist whose vision has always been quietly extraordinary.
