Aubrey Johnson - The Lively Air (2026) Hi-Res

The Lively Air is the second album from vocalist and composer Aubrey Johnson, featuring her six-piece chamber jazz ensemble. An exquisitely crafted program of original arrangements and songs, the album marks Johnson's return to composing after several years focused primarily on recording and interpreting other artists’ music (notably, Lyle Mays, Billy Childs, Alex Sipiagin, Randy Napoleon, and more). The album serves as a brilliant companion to her critically hailed debut, the 2020 Outside In Music release Unraveled.
