A crucial reason why Swirl sounds so buoyant and brilliant is the rapport shared among the trio-mates-comfortable and flowing yet full of musical risk-taking, and always interactive. InchI like to play with people I love; that's really important to me,Inch Wolff says. InchThat vibe needs to be up there on the bandstand.Inch When it clicks, Wolff adds, the duties of a bandleader can feel effortless InchHaving a group to me is like casting a movie If you have the right people, you don't have to say much.

Modern day record producers often find themselves in the unfortunate position of hiring studio fixers and technology experts to make presentable records. This project required none of that. Simply putting 4 masters of the craft together on stage at a jazz club in Los Angeles and engaging a Grammy winning recording engineer to capture it all over 2 magical nights of live performance was all that was required. The fact that Michael Wolff, Mark Isham, Mike Clark and John B. Williams had known each other for their entire careers only enhanced the whole enterprise. The camaraderie and mutual respect is apparent in every track. From the heartfelt ballads of Wolff and Wayne Shorter to the high energy of Wolff's LagniappeInch (the 13th treat of a baker's dozen), to the groove of Clark's InchLoft FunkInch, the listener is included in improvisational music making at it's finest. So sit back and enjoy the ride...Inch -Nic. tenBroek, Producer (Los Angeles, CA) Album Tracks 1. Ballade Noir 2. Lagniappe 3. Fall 4. Falling Down 5. The Conversation 6. Nefertiti 7. Loft Funk
