NYSJE's vibes are still as infectious as ever and, with the same enthusiasm as in their first album, the true kings of contemporary ska-jazz offer us seven superior class originals of New Orleans ska-jazz, funky reggae and delicious pop-steady and three covers, all blended with positive feel.

Many things have happened in The New York Ska-Jazz Ensemble, and in the world, during the last two years.

This new NYSJE album is dedicated to the idea of living in the present, since we never know what tomorrow will bring.

The time keeps being now, no need to look back, just focus on the present. That is the message behind their brand-new album "In the Moment", a healing dose of positive ska and reggae mixed with Nuyorican flavor, which makes their fifteenth album a very special one.

With the same enthusiasm as in their first album, the band continues bringing their superior class original New Orleans ska-jazz tunes "See Yah Wouldn't Wanna Be Yah", "Peanut Butter" and funky reggae "In the Moment".

Delightful reggae-jazz "Solitude" and skanky jazz merriment "Peanut Butter" and "Time is Now".

Their covers of "I'm Old Fashioned" (Jerome Kern), Van Morrison's "Bright Side of the Road" and the delicious pop-steady revisit of The Five Stairsteps' "O-o-h Child" complete a great album.

These ten new tracks will make you celebrate and dance today, tonight, in the moment, because the time is now.
