You Are Not Alone contains music for the heart, designed for healing, feeling, and being. In each piece, the musicians collectively meditate on a specific challenge or theme. Parenting in the pandemic, the insurrection at the Capitol, the human cost of America’s foreign wars, and Ailabouni's identity as a Palestinian-American are just a few examples.
Ailabouni's music uses the jazz tradition as a vehicle for musical storytelling that is both personal and communal, both intimate and vast. Sometimes it’s a party. Other times a prayer. Or both.
Featured alongside Jon Ailabouni are top musicians from the Midwest: saxophonist Simon Harding (Cedar Falls, IA), pianist Mike Conrad (Cedar Falls, IA), bassist Karyn Quinn (La Crosse, WI), and drummer Chris Jensen (Iowa City, IA).
