Press Quotes
…the cleverly titled Emergency Management Heist is an avant-garde trio outing that emits a sensation that the musicians could be planning some sort of raid amid pensive or gradually climactic incarnations. They broadcast grave situations via nervy meanderings but most always get to the root of the issue. Hence, the trio means business, but doesn’t overpower or embark on free-form blowing contests. It’s a concentrated effort as they methodically develop a course of action.
Glenn Astarita, All About Jazz
The expressive improvisations came about from fine interplay between very experienced improvisers who have a rich vocabulary and a clear voice to their disposal.
Avant garde free jazz, which is to say, music for rolling in catnip. Melodic and tranquil meanderings, improvisational tension and turbulence. No drums but plenty of rhythm. Entirely instrumental.
