Saul Dautch’s debut, Music For The People, is a celebration of baritone saxophone as both story‑teller and swing instigator. Dautch teams with Noah Halpern on trumpet, Miki Yamanaka on piano, Louie Leager on bass, and Hank Allen‑Barfield on drums. The production is a collection of seven originals and one buoyant Duke Pearson cover that showcases outstanding interplay and heartfelt solos across the quintet. With its accessible grooves and thoughtful arrangements, the recording is as inviting as it is accomplished. It’s a confident debut that embodies the communal spirit of its title.
