The band Plainville is Udden’s newest project and features a more folk-influenced twist, finding a niche on bills with country and folk groups as well as jazz, featuring Udden on sax, backed by a unique combination of pump organ/rhodes, banjo/guitar, bass and drums. Plainville is named for Udden’s home town in Massachusetts.
Described as “folk, rock, free build upon the underlying jazz” (JAZZMAN – France) and “an appealingly dreamy roots-jazz combo” by Time Out New York, Plainville is Udden’s most recent album on Fresh Sounds New Talent records (Spain) featuring: Pete Rende, pump organ/rhodes; Brandon Seabrook, banjo/guitar; Eivind Opsvik, bass; RJ Miller, drums; and Udden on saxophone. Also available on Amazon.com and iTunes.
