Fiona's Comments

Did we mention one John Schofield wasn't enough a while back? Well, here we are. All the quirk of the fair.

About the Album

Playful fusion anthem with zigzagging melody lines and searing solos atop a classic cross-stick groove. Inspired by Balmer's youngest son, sharing his nickname as the title.
