Jacob Fred Jazz Odyssey - November 17th, 2005
w/ Tripod
Fresh off last a white hot Wicker Park Fest set, Jacob Fred returns to bring us some more of that aural insanity we all love. You really can't say it much better than Dave Segal of Jazz Times: "JFJO burns with a quiet intensity rather than dramatically explodes. The musicians play with a coiled looseness, improvising with quicksilver yet deliberate force. You can hear the band's power and inventiveness creatively eroding structure, and the tension produced from that is exhilarating. If JFJO isn't moving jazz forward, it is shifting its center of gravity interestingly askew."

JFJO is coming this go around, in support of their new album, The Sameness of Difference.
