If it’s stringed and strummed, the brilliant Brozman has probably worked with it at one point. The New Yorker’s collabs with other guitarists have taken him around the world, with magnificent results, and here he jams with his oddest partners yet—a whole lot of himself. Assisted by percussionist/co-producer Daniel Thomas, Brozman layers parts on everything from the Bolivian charango to Hawaiian and Hindustani slide guitars to the classic National steel, in what amounts to both a look back through his myriad, planet-spanning jams, and also an undiluted showcase of his skills and character. Brozman’s distinctive voice as an artist is one of tremendous charm and welcoming warmth, whose tunes could be equated with backrubs and banana daiquiris on the beach.
