Arts+Literature Laboratory brings this dynamic trio to Madison in support of their new album Platinum on Tap, released on the Intakt label. The Chicago Reader describes the trio’s music as “seamlessly connect[ing] their abiding love and respect for jazz tradition with an inherent interest in pushing the music forward.”
