“What’s the point of doing what we do if we can’t bring joy and unity to others?” asks Curtis Harmon, drummer and founding member of the pioneering chart-topping Contemporary Jazz group Pieces Of A Dream (POD). “Let’s face it, it’s gratifying to see people gathered together smiling, dancing and genuinely enjoying themselves.” Curtis’ long- time musical brother, pianist and POD co-founder James Lloyd adds “Our quest as composers and performers has always been to utilize the power of music to bring people from all walks of life together for a good time.” Pieces Of A Dream’s 26th recording, "We Got This," exceeds in delivering the powerhouse group’s mission. The anticipated recording features ten originals that pack a powerful punch. “It’s all there,” says Lloyd. “Grooves that make your head bob. Catchy melodies. Moving bass lines. Heartfelt solos. Sensuality. Spirituality. Something to dance to. Something to party to. Something to relax to and something to reflect to.” At the heart of "We Got This" is a love of music, a commitment to brotherhood and the spirit of resilience. “There is a semi-hidden meaning behind the album title and a nod of gratitude to my partners Curtis and Tony,” reveals Lloyd. “I suffered three strokes during the creation of this music, and I couldn’t contribute as much to this project as I am used to doing. I am grateful to my brothers for having my back during the process of making this album.” POD truly is a brotherhood and the adoration and respect that Curtis, James, and Tony share permeates every note on "We Got This." As a result, it is not hard to understand why Pieces Of A Dream has stood the test of time and will mark their 50th anniversary in 2026. It’s been a thrilling ride that has included being discovered as teens by the legendary Grover Washington, Jr., having a track on the soundtrack to Spike Lee’s cult classic School Daze, over three million albums sold, backing the Godfather of Soul James Brown, and opening for jazz icons like Miles Davis and Count Basie, and they are nowhere near done yet!
