Live at ‘Beat Niq’ in Calgary May 15/09

Inspired by the likes of Charlie Haden and Bill Frisell, with a bit

of Kenny Wheeler thrown in, the tunes range from pastoral sonic

vignettes  to rather noisy and dissonant blues always played in the highly interactive style, which is the band’s raison d'etre.

The trio is also 3/4 of the Northern Lights Quartet which performed

at the Giant Steppes of Jazz Festival in  Ulaanbaatar, Mongolia and

Peking University, Beijing, China in 2008.

They will perform all selections from the CD and others

slated for the next recording.
