“The Bay Area
multi-instrumentalist
turns his many cultural
influences and musical
talents into a whirlwind
high on his new album, Song
Without Singing.
Don’t pop this record in
expecting the usual play
by play of a typical
straight-ahead feature.
Bay Area bassist Fred
Randolph put together a
faster-paced strategy
that leaves the listener
on the edge of his
seat.” - Carol
Banks Weber, AXS
“In the World of jazz,
barriers are breaking
down fast. The new album
by San Francisco Bay
Area bassist Fred
Randolph is a case in
point…Randolph offers a
globe-spanning
collection of tunes
that…win the day.” -
Ron Netsky, Rochester
City Newspaper
“Though usually
employed as a sideman,
he’s released several
engaging albums under
his own name, most
recently Song
Without Singing
(Creative Spirit
Records), a project that
showcases his rhythmic
range and melodically
charged compositional
vision…His band features
top shelf improvisers.”
