Concord Jazz has announced the release of Escaping Shadows, the sophomore album from alto saxophonist Benny Reid. On his new release, 28-year-old Reid reveals the next vital step in his maturation as an adventurous artist and an ambitious composer. The album features nine originals and one cover song, and will be available everywhere September 15th, 2009.

Noteworthy originals include the volume-surging, rock-grooved “Facing the Edge” and the hybrid “New Days” that starts with a jazz groove followed by a jungle beat in the middle section. The lone cover of the CD is a pensive rendering of Pat Metheny’s “Always and Forever”.
