A massive winter storm roared into America’s Midwest, carrying a wave of ice and snow that shut down airports, schools, colleges and government offices.
Large sections of busy Midwest highways were closed, cities of Dallas, Oklahoma, Tulsa and Chicago are nearly shut down and they still expect 60 centimeters of snow and 3 centimeters of ice.

JamBase Questionnaire: Brian Haas
December 7th, 2010 |
No Comments
Welcome back to JamBase’s baker’s dozen to the bright lights of the music world. Last time we heard from The New Up.
Odysseys are a tricky business. By nature, they are circuitous and fraught with sirens calling one towards the rocks and angry, jealous gods tossing stones in one’s pathway. The long, winding road of Jacob Fred Jazz Odyssey handily reflects the mythological origins of their name, with myriad lineup changes and stylistic shifts over their many years. But one element remains constant – though perhaps bobbing his head wildly – and that’s Brian Haas, who is hands down one of the finest keyboardists of his generation, a player for the ages who continues the line begun by Earl Hines, Chick Corea and John Medeski.
Another facet of an odyssey is surprise around each turn, and one need only press play on Stay Gold, the latest JFJO studio joint (released June 21 on Royal Potato Family), and they’re whisked into brightly hued fresh spaces dappled with Chris Combs’ lap steel (and growing compositional acumen) and Haas’ ever-potent piano. The atmosphere of opener “The Sensation of Seeing Light” touches on Jacob Fred’s existing gift for capturing elemental qualities in song, but it’s followed by “Trampoline Phoenix,” which shifts and explodes in a patient, intense way for a vibe that’s genuinely new. This vibe – a little Okie, a little funky, a little classical – continues on the superb “Hanby’s Window,” which burns and jumps with giddy life. A lovely melodic sense infuses this set, with the entire quartet using conscious control and playing to the shared sensibilities of each piece. So, as usual, instrumental music is given a gift when JFJO gathers, particularly in the flowing, gorgeous piano work of Haas on Stay Gold.
Jacob Fred plays NYE in their native Tulsa, Oklahoma – tackling, perhaps literally, the music of Madonna, Beyonce and Lady Gaga – and then a special NYC Winger Jazz Fest gig in NYC at Le Poisson Rouge on January 8 (late night – starting at 1 am), but Mistah Haas squirreled away a few moments to answer our questions.

Jacob Fred Jazz Odyssey: Three New Live Clips
December 2nd, 2010 |
No Comments
THE ODYSSEY CONTINUES
Lovers of instrumental gold with a jazz soul know that Jacob Fred Jazz Odyssey is a great fount of such richness. The relatively new incarnation of the quartet with double bassist Jeff Harshbarger joining Brian Haas (keys), Josh Raymer (drums) and Chris Combs (lap steel) earlier this year. The foursome has been busy building their road legs and diving into a new batch of exciting studio recordings since debuting Ludwig! this past June (JamBase review).
JFJO’s recent West Coast Tour found them recording a new album direct to lathe for a vinyl release coming next April featuring two new songs and two improvs. Next January recording will occur in the band’s native Tulsa, OK on Chris Comb’s Race Riot Suite at the legendary Church Studios with special guests Jeff Coffin, Steven Bernstein, Peter Apfelbaum and Mark Southerland. That release is due out next fall.
Jacob Fred will perform a very special New Year’s Eve show at Cain’s Ballroom in Tulsa, where they will deconstruct and Fred-i-fy the music of Lady Gaga, Beyonce and Madonna. One hopes tape will be running so those of us not fortunate enough to be in Oklahoma at the dawn of 2011 will get to experience this splendid freak show after the fact. Tickets for the NYE show are available here.
In the meantime, the band offers us a trio of fine live offerings, starting with a new B.Haas song entitled “Myers Flat to Miranda,” which is a stretch of the Avenue of the Giants in Northern California.

NYE IN PHILADELPHIA AT THE ELECTRIC FACTORY
 Lotus |
Following four straight sold-out shows to kick off the fall tour, Lotus prepares to march further,
hitting both coasts and points in between this season.
After the fall tour ends in November, two more shows go
down in Chicago just after Thanksgiving. Lotus goes out again for a short holiday run starting December 29 at the
Water Street Music Hall in Rochester, NY. They are back in Baltimore for an intimate show at the 8×10 on the 30
before their highly-anticipated return to Philadelphia’s Electric Factory for a hometown New Year’s Eve celebration
where they’re joined this year by old friends and fellow Philadelphians, Brothers Past. As a special to the fans, there
are a limited number of reduced price two-show passes for the Baltimore and New Year’s Eve shows.
The Fall Tour continues on tonight in St. Louis, with the glitch-hop drenched beats of Mux Mool along for the extent
of the tour, and continues across the country, supported by an array of local electronic artists in each city.
