Along with her drummer husband Igal Foni, trombonist Reut Regev has been part of the New York avant garde jazz scene for 20 years. This Is R*Time is her debut album as a leader. Reut was born and raised in Israel. After taking piano lessons as a child, Reut started playing trombone as a teen. After serving in Israel's army band as lead trombone, Reut moved to New York City. She started out as a sideman with The Jump Arts Orchestra, Groove Collective, Anthony Braxton, Metropolitan Klezmer and Positive Catastrophe. Then she released her debut album as a leader in 2009 on Ropeadope called This Is R*Time. Reut wrote and produced with drummer husband Igal Foni. Other musicians are David Phelps on guitar, Brad Jones on bass and Eddie Bobe on percussion. This album is available as a digital download. Reut released a second R*Time album called Exploring the Vibe in 2014 on Enja. Her latest album Never Enough was released under the name Two Much on Relative Pitch. This is not a band album. It's just Reut and Foni. She also continues to record frequently with avant garde jazz sax legend Anthony Braxton. And Reut is currently a member of Wade Schuman's band Hazmat Modine. Here's Reut Regev with David Phelps, Brad Jones and Igal Foni performing Balibalaila at the Cornelia Street Cafe in New York City 2009.
