About the album

Saxophone icon Kirk Whalum blasts off with his highly anticipated new album Epic Cool, an electrifying collection of original grooves. Teaming up with producer Greg Manning (Keb' Mo', Herb Alpert, 2x GRAMMY® nominee, composer/collaborator on 10 #1 Billboard hits), Whalum focuses on his songwriting to craft an album that's passionate and spirited on a monumental scale, but with his trademark soul. From danceable hits like "Ba-De-Yah!" to melodic, sultry jams (Whalum calls "Pillow Talk" the strongest song he's written in 20 years), Epic Cool weaves a musical story that has wide, cross-genre appeal. Get ready to groove because Epic Cool is anything but ordinary.
