The St. Louis based MAXJAZZ label has released a new CD that teams Brazilian jazz group Trio da Paz with American vibes player Joe Locke. Live at JazzBaltica, which is out this week, documents a 2007 performance at the JazzBaltica festival in Salzau, Germany, and represents the first entry in what the label is calling its "band series".
Trio da Paz was formed in 1990 and consists of drummer Duduka da Fonseca, bassist Nilson Matta and guitarist Romero Lubambo, while Locke is known for his ability to tackle a variety of jazz styles from funk to free-form. You can hear some excerpts from Live at JazzBaltica via the eCard on the MAXJAZZ Web site.

Dear Dean,
Joe has a lot of fun playing with Trio da Paz, he has been doing concerts and club dates with them for a couple of years now.
It's one band we think is taylor made for the Jazz Bistro!
Best,
Tom Marcello
