Living Standards II is protean drummer Karl Latham’s second adventurous jazz/jam journey exploring smash pop and rock hits that have become modern standards, following the well-received Living Standards (2016) featuring Mark Egan and Vic Juris.
Living Standards II once again pairs Latham with good friend and iconic bassist Mark Egan and renowned guitarist Mitch Stein (Brecker Brothers, David Sanborn, Steve Kimmock). Top tier musicians, keyboardist Henry Hey (David Bowie, Bill Evans, Tedeschi/Trucks), renowned percussionist Roger Squitero and special guest vibraphonist Wolfgang Lackerschmid join Latham in stirring the creative pot on several of the selections.
Living Standards II draws influences from Miles Davis’ electric groups and jazz fusion groups of the 1970’s inventively paired with iconic class rock hits including Crosby, Still, Nash and Young “Carry On”, Buffalo Springfield’s “Rock and Roll Woman” and Steppenwolf’s “Magic Carpet Ride.”
