This working quartet is a perfect example of what makes Chicago such a fertile breeding ground for improvised music; four musicians of widely varying ages, backgrounds, playing experiences, and musical interests join forces to deliver moments of both sublime beauty and volcanic energy, continually tempered by the seamless narrative momentum that they weave together in a seemingly effortless way. Convened in the fall of 2012, the band keeps up a regular concert schedule in Chicago and abroad, and their group dynamic reveals the type of incredibly seasoned chemistry that only such regular performances could allow. They’ve also performed nationally and internationally at festivals in North America and Europe including Kerava Jazz Festival, Suoni Per Il Popolo, Edgefest, Wels Music Unlimited, and The Chicago Jazz Festival. The group has four records available through Aerophonic Record [https://aerophonicrecords.com/]s including Aphelion [http://aerophonicrecords.com/rempisabramsra-aphelion/] (2014), Perihelion [http://aerophonicrecords.com/rempisabramsra-baker-perihelion/], (2016), Apsis (2019), and Scylla (2022). They are currently working on another album for release in late 2026.
