Deep Tide Quartet at The Whiskey Jar

Martin Archer – saxophones

Kim Macari – trumpet

Laura Cole – piano

Walt Shaw – percussion and live electronics

Open ended jazz playing with no stylistic limits – written scores, graphic scores, improvisation – improvisation which is inclusive of melody and structure – whatever we feel like playing – plenty of space for the music to develop its direction – concentrated and careful listening – ultimately rooted in, and building on the tradition of, pure jazz skill no matter where the music takes us.

“Contemporary composition/improv does not get much better than this.” Nick Lea, Jazz Views
