New Originals for the Green Lady

New Originals for the Green Lady is the fourth album length release by the Kansas City group OJT (organ jazz trio).  This release features original compositions by Ken Lovern and Brian Baggett and one completely improvised piece titled Back Yard Improv Jam.  New Originals is the follow up album to New Standards for the Green Lady, a 2015 release that gave the group’s unique organ jazz treatment to pop tunes of the last few decades.  OJT now makes a more unique and personal musical statement with a full length album of original music.  

Both of these releases feature Ken Lovern on hammond organ, Brian Baggett on guitar, and Kevin Frazee on drums.  

 

Innovative Kansas City artist Nina Irwin created unique cover art specifically for this album.  Nina is known for her delicate dreamlike landscapes, her beautiful use of color, and her multi layered treatment of surfaces.  The artwork is particularly striking on the vinyl album cover.
