Podcast 24 - Matt Otto
There is a good chance that Matt Otto is one of the best saxophonists that you have never heard. He grew up in California but has since lived in Japan, Indiana, Boston, New York, Los Angeles, and now Kansas City. We talk about his aunt being a rodie for Don Cherry, performing acid jazz in Japan, playing free jazz with Rashid Bakr, and what it feels like to own a house. Matt’s story is strange and incredibly interesting and his music is incredible. Please check this episode out!
