SUMMARY:John Escreet’s Seismic Shift with Eric Revis and Damion Reid (1st Show)
DESCRIPTION:Doors 7:30 PM\, Music 8:00 PM - 1 set(s) of music\n \nLine-up:\nJohn Escreet - Piano\n\nEric Revis - Bass\n\nDamion Reid - Drums\n \nAbout\nPianist John Escreet\, hailed by Time Out London as a “transatlantic jazz genius\,” continues his artistic ascent with the bold\, exploratory new album Seismic Shift (Whirlwind Recordings). It is Escreet’s ninth album as a leader but his first at the helm of a trio\, and also one of the first to see release since his move to the West Coast in early 2020.\n\nThe UK native\, former Brooklynite and now Los Angeles transplant teams up with fellow Angelenos Eric Revis (bass) and Damion Reid (drums) for a set brimming with fire and invention. Seismic Shift offers ground-shaking evidence that Escreet\, with his limitless technique\, harmonic imagination and refined grasp of the improviser’s art\, ranks as one of the top pianist auteurs of our time. Equally at home in mainstream\, electric\, avant-garde and world jazz contexts\, he has also built a reputation as a versatile sideman and collaborator with credits including Antonio Sanchez\, Tyshawn Sorey\, Amir ElSaffar\, David Binney\, and Evan Parker to name a few.\n\nThe world of Seismic Shift is on one level what the title implies: it involves tumult\, rupture\, earthquake. Escreet and his colleagues unleash a lot of power\, whether freely improvising\, sculpting sound with extended techniques\, or for that matter playing elegant tonal harmony. “Any music I present needs to be varied\,” Escreet says. “There needs to be beauty alongside the wild moments\, moments of tonality against moments of abstraction. Most of all\, any idea put forward\, whether composed or improvised\, needs to have clarity and purpose.”\n\n“The agility and interplay between the three\, on what is Escreet’s first-ever trio recording\, makes the entirety of Seismic Shift a joyful\, “hell\, yeah” listen” - Downbeat\n\n “Together\, the three have achieved a remarkable rapport\, moving as a unit through pieces with sudden tempo changes and dynamics that range from all out sonic assault to pristine delicacy.” - The Wall Street Journal\n\n “Seismic Shift is a gorgeously arresting album\, and there's never a moment where you can easily predict where Escreet's trio is going to go next.” - All Music\n\n “Escreet fires up this blazing new trio with creative explosion\, making clear he’s here to stay as one of the most talented pianists around.” - Jazz Trail\n\n \n\n[embed]https://youtu.be/hyDhlXyiEbI[/embed]
