by Ian Patterson
March 3, 2015

It took Nate Radley a while to graduate from sideman/band member to leader, but The Big Eyes (Fresh Sound New Talent, 2012) was an impressive debut that called for a quick follow-up.

October 7, 2013

The Elec Tet started out as a fusion tribute band, but it quickly outgrew that designation.
