Today’s episode of The Jazz Hole Live features the NY-based guitarist and composer Rafał Sarnecki (originally from Warsaw, Poland) with a live set from ShapeShifter Lab in Brooklyn, NY. In the thirteen years that Rafał spent living in the Big Apple, he has become one of the most sought-after jazz composers of his generation. So far, he has released four albums as a leader, most recently “Climbing Trees” (2018, Outside In Music). Check out live versions of four of Rafał Sarnecki’s original compositions, recorded live ShapeShifter Lab (Rafał Sarnecki along with Lucas Pino, Bogna Kicińska, Kuba Cichocki, Rick Rosato and Colin Stranahan), plus a track from the actual album (Glenn Zaleski replaces Kuba Cichocki).
