An accomplished pianist and composer, one of Haugland’s compositions, “Lift,” won a DownBeat award for “Best Original Song.” In April 2012, Haugland released his debut album "Point of No Return" featuring NYC alto saxophonist Dick Oatts and bassist Jay Anderson. His album has received national radio airplay and has been ranked on the jazz charts by jazzweek.com for the past year. Haugland has also played in professional and academic settings with many prominent jazz artists."A Million Dreams, pianist Ben Haugland's second date as a leader, has an element of a propulsive, flexible, sensitive rhythm section comprised of Haugland, bassist Jay Anderson and drummer Chris Smith. Haugland, tenor saxophonist Stephen Jones, and trumpeter Scott Wendholt are capable soloists with stimulating things to say and ample technique. These guys play the leader's genuinely original compositions—and the rest of the material—with absolute conviction." - AllAboutJazz | ||
