Dan on drums and Chris on trombone and bass, have played together since childhood, so add an inherited flair to their spirited and flexible sound They are joined by guitarist Mike DeMicco and Chuck Lamb on keyboards. Said one review er. W inston Brooks o f the Chattanooga Outlook. “Elements of rock, classical, blues, funk, reggae and world music blended the quartet's approach to contemporary jazz... The rhythmic drive ranged from light brush-stroked drum work to turbulent syncopated beats. And because one rarely hears a jazz combo with a trombone and a Hammond organ, the sound was unique." All of the quartet members have toured worldwide. Just last month they played in London with their father and in Munich, then performed live on NPR during its New Year’s Eve program. Cost is adults $17.50, and children $7.50.
