The fevered mind of George Colligan took no rest during the COVID-19 pandemic. Classical clarinetist, Lisa Lipton, was looking to have a new piece composed that incorporated improvisation. She was introduced to Colligan through their mutual collaborator, Micah Hummel (drums). From this came the commissioned piece “Illegitimi non carborundum” (which appears on this album). The piece gets its title from a mock-Latin aphorism, often translated as "Don't let the bastards grind you down", something Colligan’s father used to say. When the trio performed the piece, he was reminded of his time playing in Don Byron’s trio, Ivey-Divey. This inspired him to write more music for this specific ensemble. The result is this twelve track full-length album, Fredson the Jeffy.
