| Michael D’Agostino & Friends Jazz and More! Michael D'Agostino and Friends Jazz and More! October 9th, 2015 8 PM The Dautaj Restaurant 36 Oakland Ave Warwick, NY Featuring Michael D'Agostino:Drums Rick Savage:Trumpet Joe Vincent Tranchina:Keyboard Jeff Ciampa:Guitar Lew Scott:Bass New CD Rick Savage-trumpet/flugelhorn, Joe Vincent Tranchina-keyboards, Bill McCrossen-bass, Michael D'Agostino-drums (Planet Arts PA301554) Street Date: October 15, 2015 An equal mix of improv and fusion leavened with taking their time yields a very interesting new set from a crew that came together at the suggestion of their UPS delivery man. Tasty stuff dedicated to pushing the boundaries of where certain forms of jazz lie, this crew gives you an unvarnished and uncommercial look behind the curtain where the muse is what it's all about. A wonderful, wild ride whose chops keep you riveted throughout. CHRIS SPECTOR, Editor and Publisher 5.0 out of 5 stars 'The magic, which happens in the improvisational moment, is self-evident.', October 4, 2015 By Grady Harp This review is from: Fourmation (MP3 Music) 'Improvisation' is a jazz term frequently used but too rarely practiced. Such is not the case with INNERrOUTe - a group that presents a unique voice in the free improv jazz and jam band tradition. According to central figure Michael D'Agostino, 'Our music is created simply by deeply listening to one another, responding, and creating as we go.' The result: a compositionally and melodically oriented genre-bending free-improv jazz experience, touching rarely experienced and emotionally beautiful realms. Feeling uplifted, centered, and more fully alive are commonly reported side effects. Or as Michael says, 'Surrender to the flow of the music, fully opening to the present moment, letting it take you where it may. And by the end, like many others, you'll probably discover INNERrOUTe's brought you home to yourself in a surprisingly profound way. The ensemble is Michael D'Agostino, drums, percussion and engineeringBill McCrossen, double bass, Joe Vincent Tranchina, keyboard, Rick Savage, trumpet and flugelhorn.
