Synergy: Bar Codes

Read "Bar Codes" reviewed by Todd S. Jenkins


Synergy's Bar Codes is a highly enjoyable fusion excursion that makes for great drive-time or social listening. All of the musicians are quite technically adept and show impeccable musicianship, and they temper their talents with a comfortable restraint that makes the disc more than just another chops-flaunting festival. Berklee alumnus Mike Brannon and company create music ...

Dave Weckl Band: Synergy

Read "Synergy" reviewed by Dave Hughes

Dave Weckl: Synergy

Read "Synergy" reviewed by Jim Santella


Contemporary jazz offers featured roles for electric guitar, electric bass, horns and keyboard. And then there’s the drummer. No longer a timekeeper, the drummer sits amid his extended set of percussion instruments and propels his band with a variety of tools. Dave Weckl employs practiced rudiments on his large set to create patterns that interact with ...

Dave Weckl Band: Synergy

Read "Synergy" reviewed by Paula Edelstein


When Dave Weckl decided to have a “band writing day, rehearsal kind of jam session” while touring with his present ensemble, he couldn’t have made a wiser decision. That day ended up yielding the foundation for almost half of the material on Synergy, his latest release on Stretch Records. The band, Brandon Fields on tenor sax, ...
