After the release of their all-original first CD, Angela Carole Brown's The Slow Club, this unique jazz quartet, now known as The Slow Club Quartet, established a kind of Expressionist Jazz Movement. Now, with EXPRESSIONISM, named for this specific turn in their artistic development, the SCQ has covered the songs of their favorite songwriters. But true to a movement known for its "eruption of irrational and chaotic forces from beneath the surface of a mechanized world," The SCQ has forsaken the typical "standards" CD that jazz artists are usually known for, and instead has created a cross-genre experience, which dips neither into fusion nor smooth jazz, but something altogether otherly. Jimi Hendrix, Tom Waits, and Elliott Smith, to name a few, have been given The Slow Club Quartet's uniquely expressionistic stamp.
