“Round Midnight,” Hubert’s first single from his forthcoming album Drops, is a smooth jazz classic by the legendary genius Thelonious Monk. Hubert is a keyboardist, writer, arranger, and the producer of this classic gem. Hubert’s interpretation is garnering rave reviews, as he has taken the liberty of taking the song in a whole new Smooth Funky Jazz direction. Hubert was able to get the blessings of TS Monk, Thelonious’ son who said, “Thelonious loved to hear other’s interpretations of his music, and yours is really different and truly modern. It’s often said Monk’s music is timeless, and your version of “Round Midnight” is a perfect example, knock yourself out!” Hubert also focuses on his ability to bring in just the right vocalists to make his interpretation of the song so extraordinary. But you can also hear him tastefully filling in his keyboard fills, and harmonic creative musicianship, to enhance the whole musical conversation bringing it all together without forcing the issue to create this masterpiece.
