the latest

Dred's new album, Dred Scott Rides Alone, is his most accessible and gentle writing
and playing in his storied career. A standard jazz piano trio format - piano, bass and drums - Dred wrote all the songs and played all the instruments. Recorded at the Art Farm Studios in rural northern California, and written during an artist residency at the UCross Foundation in Wyoming
the sublime and thoughtful Dred Scott Rides Alone stands as a mature and melodic statement
of life, love and the pursuit of beauty.
