Colin Hancocks Jazz Hounds featuring Catherine Russell

Cat & the Hounds brings together Colin Hancock’s Jazz Hounds and three-time GRAMMY-nominated vocalist Catherine Russell for a vibrant journey into the soundscape of early 1920s Black jazz and blues. Through deep historical research and bold contemporary interpretation, the album reimagines the era’s music—not as mere re-enactment, but as a living restoration of its complex, cosmopolitan roots. Comprehensive liner notes written by Colin Hancock and Paul Kahn.
