At age 32, bassist Alex Claffy has become one of the most in-demand performers of his generation, both as a sideman working with the biggest names in Jazz and Popular music, and also as a bandleader, composer and producer. His resumé as a sideman reads as a veritable who's who of Jazz royalty, ranging from Jazz masters such as George Coleman, Harold Mabern, Randy Brecker, Wallace Roney and Louis Hayes, to the top stars of today such as Nicholas Payton, Christian Adjtunde Adjuah, Seamus Blake and Kurt Rosenwinkel. Memento is his 10th album as a leader, returning to Cellar Music with an all-star band that illustrates what a high level of musicianship is still coming out of New York City and includes Kurt Rosenwinkel on guitar, Jimmy Macbride on drums, and an appearance from Eric Alexander on tenor saxophone.

Press Quotes
Ascending bassist Alexander Claffy takes an all-encompassing approach to jazz standards, befitting that famous maxim by Dizzy Gillespie: 'As a musician, you have to have to keep one foot back in the past and have one foot forward into the future.'
—Brian Zimmerman, Jazz
