SUMMARY:FLEX TRIO
DESCRIPTION:Formed in 2020\, FLEX TRIO is composed of three of Chicago’s finest improvisers: saxophonist Chris Madsen\, drummer Neil Hemphill\, and two-time Grammy-award-winning bassist Clark Sommers.  The group interprets songs within and outside of the jazz canon\, putting their original stamp on works by Herbie Hancock\, Bobby Hutcherson\, and Jimmy Webb\, to name a few.  To this end\, their debut album Facets of Form (released February 2024) finds the musicians exploring both well-known and more obscure material.  FLEX trio has performed extensively in the Chicago area at many venues and has held several residencies at Dorian’s Speakeasy.

SUMMARY:OUTER LIMITS DUO - Juli Wood & Kim Zick
DESCRIPTION:Drummer Kim Zick and saxophonist Juli Wood have performed together over the years in many configurations. As the Outer Limits Duo\, the MRS. FUN drummer and onetime R&B Cadets saxophonist (living now in Chicago) ventures to places explored by jazz avant-gardists such as Archie Schepp and Max Roach in a relentless sonic assault. \nTheir new album\, Carnival of Souls\, was recorded at Milwaukee’s DV Studio with Zick’s partner in MRS. FUN\, Connie Grauer\, producing. Carnival of Souls includes nine live improvisations by Zick and Wood plus renditions of three Grauer compositions\, including “Judy\,” “Cecil’s Waterfowl Ranch” and the melodically gorgeous “Zoila\,” which suggests something Henry Mancini might have written for a film that audiences never saw.
