The great, one-of-a-kind, the inimitable, the statuesque Jacob Fred Jazz Odyssey. They have a new EP (buy it) with an evolving sound (Dr. Dre + Beethoven = Drethoven?), and are super guys and mindblowing musicians. If you haven’t – see them live.
Pianist Brian Haas has been working on an interpretation of Beethoven’s 3rd and 6th symphony for years now, and the project, a collaboration with a full symphony, is finally going to happen this winter. And there you have the crux of this idea. Brian Haas, Chris Combs, Josh Raymer, and Matt Hayes as baroque busts. We ended up toning down the original idea which required full white makeup. But I feel comfortable with the result. Try not to notice the ugly columns. Yes, I was too lazy to shoot real columns to fit.
See the cover of the Urban Tulsa Weekly, and read the article by Erin Fore, seriously good writing.
Below are some live shots as well, also see an older post of JFJO.
