East Axis Is like the cumulative life experience of its members: four men of different styles and backgrounds, coming together to spontaneously make music that sounds like each of them, all of them, and none of them. The music is like a dream of many scenes, but one observed with precision and the deepest type of understanding. The sound of it is a running commentary on the intersection of experience and that dream; a map of places that these musicians are still trying to explore. The challenge for listeners to keep up is also central to the thrill of listening to this music. - Something Else! The new free jazz quartet East Axis explores different moods and forms of narrative in their music, and the fun of it, besides the incredible sounds that connect with artistic purpose, is that you are never sure exactly where it will take you...the group delivers with both elegance and vitality. - Jazz Trail BAND MEMBERS:Gerald Cleaver: drums Kevin Ray: bass Scott Robinson: tenor saxophone, alto clarinet, tarogato, trumpet, slide cornet Matthew Shipp: piano EAST AXIS / NO SUBJECTEast Axis is a visionary improvising quartet consisting of renowned musicians, Gerald Cleaver (drums), Kevin Ray (bass), Scott Robinson (sax) and Matthew Shipp (piano).
