Fairgrounds

Jeff Ballard, ranked among the most inventive and adventurous drummers of his generation, made his name playing with Ray Charles, Chick Corea, Pat Metheny and Brad Mehldau. Fairgrounds, his second album as a leader, brings together Lionel Loueke (Blue Note), Kevin Hays and Reid Anderson with guest appearance from Mark Turner and Chris Cheek. With a freedom to explore and to express himself with musicians who are close to his heart and mind, the result is a rich and flexible musical language, embracing influences as diverse as Jazz, Rock, Pop, Electronica and West African music.
