Prism

A high-voltage departure featuring overdriven guitar and gritty Fender Rhodes. Muscular, blues-inflected jazz fusion anchored by a legendary upright bass pulse.

It's Dave Holland if he decided to plug in and let a rock-influenced quartet tear through the room.

A high-stakes, electric intensity that balances intellectual complexity with a raw, bluesy physical drive.

Moments Worth Waiting For

The transition in 'The Watcher' where the polite opening gives way to Kevin Eubanks' aggressive, overdriven guitar tone.

Craig Taborn's shift from crystalline acoustic piano to the swampy, distorted textures of the Fender Rhodes on 'The Empty Chair'.

The ferocious drum patterns on 'Evolution' that push the quartet into a high-voltage jazz-rock frenzy.
