Jaimie Branch's Fly or Die - Leaves of Glass/The storm

Chicago/NYC trumpeter Jaimie Branch arrives in Toronto hot off the heals of her new record "Fly or Die" with a quartet featuring percussionist Chad Taylor (Chicago Underground Duo), bassist Jason Ajemian, and cellist Tomeka Reid. Branch's compositions shift between meandering improvised passages and swinging avant jazz break outs. Her quartet moves like a bramble rolling down a hill, twisting & turning in constant motion. As Taylor & Ajemian hold down the rhythmic fort, Branch's laid back horn solos navigate playfully through Reid's bowed arobics. Though Branch has been an active member of both Chiacgo & New York's jazz scenes for years, this record sees her voice solidify as a strong force in comtemorary jazz & beyond. For the heads!
