The Red Microphone is a NYC-based New Music/New Jazz quartet of rad musicians engaging in a repertoire drenched in liberation jazz, dissident swing and contemporary composition at once compelling and patently “downtown”. Call it post-Ornette, Post-Dolphy, post-Occupy music. The band’s art is as revolutionary as the times demand. The ensemble’s debut CD, The Red Microphone Speaks! was released in April 2013 (Dissident Arts label).
