The group performs live in our studio.

Dude, the Rush cover rocks!
Ask them how it is navigating all those time signature changes.
THE BAD PLUS & TRIO TOYKEAT are my all time favorite serious JAZZ bands.
The latter is from Finland.
Needless to say I dig MMW & John Scofield.
Fantastic episode as usual. Thanks John.
Cheers.
Hamid.
