Dan Weiss and Miles Okazaki have been partners in rhythm for 20 years. Both Weiss and Okazaki are artists on the Pi recordings label, have appeared together on seven albums (three by Okazaki and four by Weiss), and are expecting to release a duo recording in the near future. In the duet setting, Weiss and Okazaki are able to explore extreme rhythmic territory and freely construct flowing improvised sets. The New York Times describes this method of performance: “The guitarist Miles Okazaki and the drummer Dan Weiss performed a duo set on Friday that suggested some of the new jazz musician’s inexhaustible options as they fit ideas together without stopping.”
