Points Of Light finds Christian McBride, the 11-time GRAMMY-winning bassist, composer, and bandleader, leading Ursa Major through a set that feels recorded live in the room. After four years of playing together on stage, the band brings an easy, tightly knit chemistry to the record. Every member contributes original material, and the lone cover is George Duke's "No Rhyme, No Reason."
The album moves comfortably between styles, from the funk of "Cows" to the Latin-tinged warmth of "Orquíeda" and the dreamy, Miles Davis-inspired flow of "A Morning Story." "Familiar Steps" brings up-tempo post-bop energy, while the closing ballad adds soprano saxophone and ambient electronic textures. McBride anchors it all on both acoustic and electric bass, showing the warmth and versatility that have defined his career.
