    Summary: 
    The books that have shaped Lynch's consciousness, and thus his music, have been myriad, and his dedications for the music of The Omni-American Book Club reflect both the diversity and the focus of his reading interests. Alongside a strong emphasis on the work of African-American writers and writing on African-American culture, both classic and contemporary, Lynch's reading interests range widely in the area of social consciousness and social justice. The nine compositions that make up The Omni-American Book Club offer a panoramic view of Lynch's world as composer, arranger and trumpet soloist in his first big band recording as a leader. With the help of an all-star cast of special guests, Lynch's pieces blend Afro-Caribbean jazz and straight-ahead swingers with hints of hip hop, funk, bossa nova and even trap music to reveal the most realized and accomplished expression of his vision as a composer to date. Connects Lynch's lifelong passion for reading and the books that have shaped his life with his original music.
