2. Judith Owen: Raised in London to a Welsh musical family, the veteran chanteuse has traveled for decades in the eclectic world of adult pop, infused with jazz, rock, blues, classical, cabaret and theatrical elements. She’s recorded with Richard Thompson, Julia Fordham, Cassandra Wilson and Harry Shearer, her husband, among others. In 2022, Owen released her first full-on jazz album, “Come On & Get It,” and now she’s touring behind this year’s “Judith Owen Comes Alive,” which shows off both sass and subtlety.

3. Happy Apple: Before they went off to play with the Bad Plus, Bon Iver, Zebulon Pike and numerous other groundbreaking acts in the 2000s, drummer Dave King, saxophonist Michael Lewis and (electric) bassist Erik Fratzke had one of the edgiest and weirdest yet accessible and wowing jazz trios around. They played just enough in ensuing years to never officially be on hiatus. Now they’re formally releasing the first Happy Apple album since 2008, “New York CD,” featuring 10 new originals ranging from the jubilant and madcap “1976 Aquatennial Parade” to the low-glowing beauty “Black and Blue Magic.” An early version was issued online in the pandemic to raise food-shelf money. They’re finally getting around to celebrate its vinyl release via Sunnyside Records.
