{"product_id":"looking-north-811869027363","title":"Looking North","description":"2016 release. Bryan Nichols is a pianist and composer based in Minneapolis, MN. Often found playing jazz and improvised music, but at home in a variety of musical worlds, he leads and composes for his own trio, quintet, and nonet in addition to performing, recording, and touring with forward-thinking artists like Nicole Mitchell, Ron Miles, and Olga Bell, and groups like the Gang Font, Dead Man Winter, and Halloween, Alaska.  Looking North originates in a concept that is simultaneously new and old in jazz: this is regional music for a global audience. Nichols grew up in Minneapolis, spent time in Iowa in college, and started his professional career in the thriving creative music scene of Chicago. The compositions are a varied exploration of Nichols' mind and playing, and take their inspiration from many sources.","brand":"Shifting Paradigm","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50525147103315,"sku":"1726709X","price":9.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/www.deepdiscount.com\/products\/looking-north-811869027363","provider":"Deep Discount","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
