Welcome to a new edition of the Neon Jazz interview series with NYC-based Jazz Trumpeter & Educator Dave Douglas. We dive into his new 2025 CD Alloy, his life in jazz, and his passion for teaching and community.

This new release is a warm, lyrical album of original compositions showcasing the rich shades of brass. Designed to bring musicians together as one organic unit, it speaks to the need for harmony, creativity, and collective spirit.

We talk about his Love of Miles Davis, his role in educating young players, an upcoming book, and much more.
