Details: 2024 release from the critically acclaimed pianist. On this release, he adds tenor saxophone master Mark Turner to trio with bassist Eric Revis and drummer Damion Reid - a powerhouse band reflecting the thriving L.A. scene. Adventurous program includes tributes to piano heroes Andrew Hill and Stanley Cowell. On John Escreet's 2022 album Seismic Shift, his first-ever release in the trio format, the pianist and composer introduced a group of the rarest strength and intelligence. Joining the U.K.-born musician were two extraordinary improvisers he'd reconnected with in Los Angeles, where he'd moved from Brooklyn just prior to the pandemic in 2020: bassist Eric Revis, a veteran of the furiously swinging Branford Marsalis Quartet who also excels in avant-garde settings; and the drummer Damion Reid, whose unparalleled ability to chop up a rhythm with finesse has made him a go-to collaborator for Robert Glasper, Steve Lehman and many others. Unsurprisingly, their dynamic music - which ranged from the tightly composed to the freely improvised, the elegant to the fierce, hitting all emotional points in between - astonished critics and audiences alike.
