"He might have been bringing jazz to our dancefloors for three decades now, but our Squire for Hire Nathan Haines is showing no signs of going trad, dad. His new album Notes has just been announced on Loop Recordings, and features heady help from around the world, including from Phil Asher, Vanessa Freeman, Mark de Clive-Lowe, Frank Booker, JKriv and Marc Mac. It's just shy of a decade since we had a full length solo LP from our sax-o-matic man, but in only a month these thirteen new tunes will be baked to perfection and ready to devour." - Flying Out
