Seit sich die ‘Fast Citizens’ 2002 in Chicago gegründet haben, haben sie sich an das Prinzip des rotierenden Bandleaders gehalten. Diesmal ist es Aram Shelton, der vor allem durch seine eigenwilligen Arrangements auffällt.
‚Two Cities‘ – das zweite Album der Band bei Delmark – zeigt die Bandbreite der Band: freie Improvisationen, schmelzende Balladen wechsel sich ab – und stellenweise wird die Erinnerung an das Sun Ra Arkestra wach.‘‘Two Citiues‘ yields a formidable hybrid of venerable post-bop and avant-garde traditions‘ (All About Jazz).
The Jason Adasiewicz Trio features Jason on vibraphone, Mike Reed on drums, and Nate McBride on bass. The Chicago jazz group formed in 2008, first experimenting as a free improvising trio, and later focused attention on arranging tunes that Adasiewicz wrote during his wife's first pregnancy in the summer of 2009. In addition, the trio plays homage to Sun Ra, Duke Ellington, and Hasaan Ibn Ali - a pianist that was only documented once in his life, in 1964 with Max Roach. Sunrooms is Adasiewicz's first release on Delmark as a leader, but he is not a stranger to the label. He is currently a member of bands lead by Josh Berman, Rob Mazurek, and Nicole Mitchell. "Adasiewicz has a tone and sense of phrasing that is unlike anyone on the instrument currently active, his sense of melody wistful and attack pelting with equal parts Milt Jackson and Khan Jamal. " -The Austinist
