Howard Alden
Part of a youthful swing movement that gained momentum in the 1980s, Howard Alden plays the earlier pre-bop styles quite effectively but also has the ability to perform the music of Thelonious Monk and Bill Evans and he is equally talented on electric guitar, acoustic guitar, and his rarely played banjo. He began gigging professionally in Los Angeles as a teenager and became good friends with trombonist Dan Barrett. In 1979 Alden played with vibraphonist Red Norvo, and in 1982 he followed Barrett to New York where he quickly became established as a major guitarist. He performed and recorded with the who's who of mainstream jazz and by the mid-'80s was one of the most popular artists on the Concord label. A very consistent and inventive musician, Alden has been in great demand for recording sessions, jazz parties, and festivals for the past 15 years. His many recordings (which include a quintet co-led with Barrett, sessions on the seven-string guitar with his idol George Van Eps and duets with Ken Peplowski) are all enjoyable and perfect examples of modern swing.
