It’s a red-letter day for the Nell/Bisio trios as July 24th is the official release date of their album, “We Are Here”.
It was recorded, mixed, and mastered (by yours truly) right here at Peak Recording. Recorded over two days in August 2025, and I finished it up in March of this year.
It’s a really good record, chock-full of great tunes all written by local jazz piano legend Bob Nell. Mike Bisio, who goes way back with Bob, came out from New York and played upright bass. Local players Adam Greenberg and Austin Belluscio played drums.
We recorded the complete album twice over two days. All the tunes one day with Austin on drums, and the next day, again, with Adam manning the kit. The final mix is roughly half of the tunes with Austin and half with Adam.
“We Are Here” has already garnered a glowing review by a US correspondent for Paris-Move. You can check it out here: https://www.paris-move.com/reviews/bob-nell-michael-bisio-trios-we-are-here/
You can get your hands on a copy by ordering from Origin Records (which would be my choice) or Amazon.
Also, the two trios will be celebrating the release of the record with a 2pm matinee performance at the Cikan House here in Bozeman on Saturday, August 15th. CDs will be available at the show.
The photo is of a plaque I made for Bob and Mike, and I also made one extra that will be going up on my wall here at Peak Recording.
