Our Daily Bread is a studio album by the American band Trio Tapestry led by Joe Lovano.[1] [2] The album was released by ECM on 5 May 2023 to favorable critical reviews.[3] This is the band's third release.[4] The album contains eight original tracks written by Lovano.[5]
Mike Hobart of Financial Times noted, "The ECM label’s emphasis on melody, shifting textures and gently unfolding moods occasionally slips into pleasant background noise. Although rhythms remain subdued on Our Daily Bread, having saxophonist Joe Lovano as lead voice means that emotions are made of sterner stuff. Add in thoughtful compositions and the subtle interplay of his established working band Trio Tapestry and this all-original set engages throughout."
Mike Jurkovic of All About Jazz wrote, "Rising from a serene inner place, the music takes shape like prayer. That it is prayer that lies at the beating heart of all eight spacious spirituals that comprise Our Daily Bread, should come as no surprise." John Shand of The Sydney Morning Herald added, "Lovano is at his peak here. There’s no trace of the opaqueness or virtuosic glibness that could occasionally dilute his never-in-doubt mastery or creativity... This is an album to be treasured."
