About the Album

Crosstalk is a track from Off-Kilter, trombonist/composer John Yao’s inventive second album with his audacious three-horn quintet Triceratops. The album features Yao with saxophonists Billy Drewes and Jon Irabagon, along with bassist Robert Sabin and drummer Mark Ferber. While his last Triceratops album How We Do featured some of Yao’s most envelope-pushing music to date, he deliberately stretched the limits even further on Off-Kilter. The compositions are at once daringly complex yet expansive and open, challenging these gifted players while offering limitless space in which to venture and discover.
