Tomeka Reid Quartet

The New York Times recently called Chicago-based experimental cellist/composer/educator Tomeka Reid "one of the great energies in jazz: a melodic improviser with a natural, flowing sense of song and an experimenter who can create heat and grit with the texture of sound." A "remarkably versatile" (Chicago Tribune) collaborator (Anthony Braxton, Nicole Mitchell), her compositions take centre stage in a quartet featuring the cream of the American creative jazz scene. With Mary Halvorson guitar, Jason Roebke bass, and Tomas Fujiwara drums, Reid's "pieces bubble with a fiery intensity and a deep-seated lyricism that showcases the superlative cellist's artistry at its best" (All About Jazz).
