Two Day residency for Joe McPhee's Survival Unit III featuring drummer Michael Zerang and cellist Fred Lonberg-Holm. This trio opened the incredible three day residency we held in April 2011 for the Peter Brötzmann Chicago Tentet with a set of nuanced group interplay, lyrical improvisation and textural adventure. It's a pleasure to have them back at Cafe OTO for a residency of their own, two sets a night with special guests Evan Parker and John Edwards.
"[Joe Mcphee's] magical take on avant-garde sax remains one of the wonders of the scene. He still has one of the most beautiful tones on the planet, even when he’s reaching for jazz’s outer limits." - Time Out New York.
