This Australian saxophone quartet jump from fiery improvisations to complex written music at the drop of a beat, featuring American expatriate Phillip Johnston (Microscopic Septet) and three of Sydney’s finest saxophonists – Sandy Evans, Paul Cutlan and Nick Bowd.
“…the writing is brilliant, combining a sophisticated mix of unisons, chorales, solos, counterpoint and free-blown sections, which transition organically and come alive through the dynamic playing of each hornist.”
–Tom Greenland, New York City Jazz Record
