The leader is the drummer Andre Sumelius and the group is known for their explosively energetic and swinging live performances. April 14 is the release date for the band's new CD, To Mingus, With Love, with tunes by the legendary bass player Charles Mingus. This tribute album was born out of the shared love within the group of Charles Mingus' (1922 - 1979) music.
The group has chosen to record the album with analog gear to get that genuine warm and dynamic sound.
