Stingrays re-sign Harrison and Legault

NORTH CHARLESTON, S.C. - The South Carolina Stingrays, ECHL affiliate of the National Hockey League’s Washington Capitals and American Hockey League’s Hershey Bears, have agreed to terms with forwards Tim Harrison and Stephane Legault for the 2019-20 season. Harrison returns to South Carolina after appearing in 66 games last season, while Legault will play his first full professional season after debuting for 11 games at the end of the 2018-19 season.

Harrison posted 19 points (7g-12a) in his sophomore professional campaign with the Stingays. The Duxbury, Massachusetts native spent his rookie season with the Adirondack Thunder in 2017-18, scoring 16 points (8g-8a) in 63 games before being acquired by the Stingrays in a trade last summer. Harrison was also part of the Thunder’s postseason run to the Eastern Conference Finals in the 2018 Kelly Cup Playoffs, suiting up in 11 games while registering four points (2g-2a) to go along with a +5 rating.

Legault made a big impact down the stretch late last year, joining the club in March after completing his final collegiate season at the University of Alberta where he totaled 15 points (5g-10a) in 18 games. He scored three times in his first two games and finished the regular season with six points in his first six professional outings.

Mark Wade Trio: Moving Day (Mark Wade Music, 2018)

Tim Harrison: piano; Mark Wade: bass; Scott Neumann: drums.

Bassist Mark Wade, who has been a part of the New York scene for the better part of two decades, made a significant statement with Event Horizon in 2015 featuring his trio of pianist Tim Harrison and drummer Scott Neumann.  What the debut album showed was Wade as a remarkable composer, and a resourceful soloist with plenty of technique but always using it the context of a music with two sympathetic dance partners.  Moving Day is the trio's long awaited follow up which expands on and adds to their strengths while also exploring some slightly different terrain.

An aspect of the new album that leaps out at the listener is it's use of odd meters.  Unlike the music of the astonishing Hiromi Uehara for example when you know straight away the music is in an odd meter, Wade has a subtle, organic way of approaching time signatures that sounds completely natural.  Take the title cut as an example, the 6/4 meter introduces a piano figure and first notes of a bass melody that sounds eerily similar to drummer Antonio Sanchez's title track of New Life (Cam Jazz, 2013).This similarity sets the stage for a theme that hints at the anxiety and exhilaration of moving, a concept the album conveys through nine cuts.  Indeed, Wade confirmed  inspiration in Sanchez' track, the bassist, Harrison and Neumann investigate a variety of moods through the funky backbeat of the theme, and thoughtful solos.  Wade's rhapsodic turn brings to mind Ben Williams and European bassists like Arild Andersen and Michel Benita.  Neumann gets a chance to flex his muscles over a vamp with a series of carefully curated ideas.  The next track, “Wide Open” is in a 7/4 meter, featuring Harrison springing forth with a wellspring of ideas in his improvisation while Wade mans an unwavering foundation, again focusing on captivating melodic choices during his solo.  The band also takes a slick look at Dizzy Gillespie's “A Night In Tunisia”, giving a fresh spin on “Another Night in Tunisia” and utterly transforming the dog eared “Autumn Leaves” into something spectacular by infusing it with the suspended chords of Herbie Hancock's “Maiden Voyage”.  Wade's gifts as a writer are again showcased on the wistful “Something Of A Romance” a cinematic ballad vividly illustrating the joy of a deep relationship, the sadness of parting, and the gorgeous  waltz,“The Bells”.

Moving Day is another scintillating chapter added to the Mark Wade Trio's oeuvre.  The Mark Wade Trio proves once more over the course of nine tunes that it is a special entity, and in the crowded landscape of New York jazz that it deserves to be in the upper pantheon of the scene with striking writing, and a trio that embodies the qualities of subtlety, inner dialogue and oneness.

Rating: 9/10

The Harrisons stopped by Bishop Castle near Pueblo, CO (bishopcastle.org/) (en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bishop_Castle) in the summer of '13. It's a castle that was started in 1969 by Jim Bishop. He's still working on it.

Here's a look at one of the nuttiest places they've ever visited. Is it safe? Maaaaybe. Is it interesting? Definitely.
