The second album by Italian big band North East Ska Jazz Orchestra. Following the critical and audience acclaim for their 2015 debut album Stompin' & Rollin' and a string of explosive performances the 18-piece orchestra now releases their second album simply entitled, North East Ska Jazz Orchestra. Nine brand new original tracks further investigating Jamaican sounds from the perspective of a contemporary big band. The outcome is a mixture of sonorities and textures to which all of the band members have contributed. The three singers deserve a special mention: Freddy Frenzy and his unmistakable style always faithful to the tradition of original ska, Rosa Mussin showing her powerful and soulful discharge in tracks like the fast-ska "Share With You All", and Michela Gena who steps forward without fear in "oldies" land.
