Jeremy Pelt(trumpet), Steve Cardenas(guitar), Frank Kimbrough(piano), Ben Allison(electric & acoustic bass), Allan Mednard(drums).
On his new album, Layers of the City, Ben & Think Free forge a group sound that’s greater than the sum of its parts. With a focus on melody, groove and texture in equal measures, Ben and the band engage in the kind of group interplay that has become a hallmark of their style.
“Bassist, composer, and bandleader Ben Allison is one of the most deliberate and focused figures in jazz, a musician who conveys a clear-cut conception in everything he does.” — Chicago Reader
“Layers of the City is all Allison, all the time..[it’s] a winner.” — NYC Jazz Record
