Intuition CD

Oftentimes when the offspring of famous musicians decide to become musicians they try to distance themselves stylistically from the ground their parents tread. Such is not the case with drummer Dan Brubeck and his bass-playing brother Chris. The Brubeck Brothers drink from the same cool post-bop stream as their famous father Dave, playing groove-oriented jazz with plenty of rigorous musicianship, which manifests itself in both structure and improvisation. Yet the Brubeck Brothers are clearly versed in funk, fusion, and ballads, and all of these elements come into play on 2006's INTUITION. Guitarist Mike Demicco, and pianist Taylor Eigsti flesh out the core quartet on this highly enjoyable outing.

All tracks have been digitally mastered using 24-bit technology.
