The core members of the band are among the more prominent exponents of the Windy City's outside jazz realm and input a great degree of artistic flair into these largely, extended pieces. With a focused game-plan, the musicians execute a vastly expressionistic series of improvisational dialogues, but all pieces contain structure, albeit tinged with loose grooves and micro-motifs, elevating the excitement level throughout.
