This included sessions led by Joanne Brackeen, Benny Golson, Dave Liebman, and T. K. Blue. Several releases have been by the Arkadia Jazz Allstars. These led to three Grammy Award nominations for Best Jazz Instrumental Solo: for Liebman on Thank You, John! Our Tribute to John Coltrane; for Golson on The Stars of Jazz, Vol.1; and for Randy Brecker on Thank You, Gerry! In 2022, the label announced plans to make all of its recordings available for streaming, the establishment of Arkadia Concerts as a video-on-demand channel, and its first releases of new material for several years.
