About the Artist
From Tulsa, Oklahoma, Brian Haas (Fender Rhodes, melodica and acoustic piano) ,Jason Smart (drums) and Reed Mathis (bass) pull influences from nearly every genre of music, diverse as John Coltrane, and Jimi Hendrix, to Thelonious Monk and KRS-ONE. Together since 1994 and performing over 200 live appearances per year, JFJO is constantly expanding their horizons by collaborating with the likes of Les Claypool, Charlie Hunter, Karl Denson, DJ Logic, John Scofield, Critters Buggin', The Slip, and the list goes on and on... JFJO have integrated their improvisational music deeply into the jazz and festival scenes, breaking new ground each year by performing at The Gathering of the Vibes, Berkshire Mountain Music Festival, New Orleans Jazz Festival, High Sierra, South by Southwest (SxSW)..
Product Description
Slow Breath, Silent Mind captures the recent journeys of Jacob Fred Jazz Odyssey as they traversed the United States on their Fall 2003 tour. Produced and compiled by bass player Reed Mathis, this collection of jazz standards captures the unique brilliance of this trio. The opening track In A Sentimental Mood exemplifies the progressive creativity of JFJO on a standard classic by Duke Ellington. Reed’s Octave Induced Acoustic Bass carries your soul through the tune but does not over shadow the greatness of Brian Haas and Jason Smart. Each member contributes an original composition and one collective composition but the album is mainly comprised of tastefully selected cover songs.
