Scaling his band down to a quartet, while loosing none of the raw power, virtuosity, intensity and tight-knit musical finesse this remarkable unit has become known for, drummer/ composer/bandleader DAVE WECKL makes a musical Transition with his new Stretch release. It's a transition that in turn clearly spurs him, and his cohorts, to new creative heights! Propelled by a kaleidoscopic array of Weckl rhythms-from funk, to New Orleans swamp grooves, to Afro-Latin to odd-meter polyrhythms to everything in between -The DAVE WECKL Band presents a truly cutting-edge musical "fusion," in the most creative sense of the word! The DAVE WECKL BAND: Dave Weckl - drums & percussion Tom Kennedy - electric bass Brandon Fields - tenor & soprano sax, alto flute Steve Weingart - keyboards
