RICHMOND, Calif., Aug. 23, 2023 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- Ron Blake marks his return to the recording studio after 15 years' absence by reuniting with an old friend for the October 13 release of "Mistaken Identity" on his own label 7tēn33 Productions. The tenor and baritone saxophonist partners for the record with esteemed guitarist Bobby Broom (who also serves as producer), enlisting as well a superb rhythm section with bassists Nat Reeves or Reuben Rogers and drummer Kobie Watkins on a smart, heartfelt collection of nine tracks that include band member originals, a standard or two, and compositions by jazz greats that have personal meaning for Blake.

Key Points: 
  • 'Mistaken Identity' is the culmination of my efforts to be true to myself in the creative process.
  • Paying homage to those I admire and who have supported me on my journey is a great point of reference in my recordings.
  • Recorded in two sessions—in 2018 and 2021, pre- and post-pandemic—"Mistaken Identity" is something of a sampler platter that reintroduces Blake to the jazz-listening public.
  • Ron Blake will be performing a CD release show at Dizzy's, New York City, on Wednesday 11/1 with Bobby Broom, guitar; Reuben Rogers, bass; and Kobie Watkins, drums.
