Night Sessions is the fourth studio album by trumpet player Chris Botti.
I had been on the road for two straight years when I found myself with a window of only ten weeks to write and record this album.
I felt energized by the challenge and asked my friend, Kipper, to co-write and produce.
Renting a house in the Hollywood Hills where we could work and live, with ample room for other musicians and friends, we started composing material.
We sensed freedom after dark - the phone was quieter and there were less distractions around the house as the light of the LA basin began to glow.
