A superlative saxophonist based in the Bay Area, Bennett has worked widely with many of the most adventurous artists on the scene including Vijay Anderson. Smith Dobson, Lisa Mezzacappa and the Rova Saxophone Quartet, as well as the Afrobeat band Lagos Roots. A student of Charlie Haden, Wadada Leo Smith, Larry Koonse, and Joe LaBarbara while studying at Cal Arts, Bennett leads his own superb trio with bassist Dan Seamans and Smith Dobson. Smith can't make this date, but Tim Bulkley is a force to be reckoned with! No slouch, he! As for Dan, just one of the very best and most intellectually satisfying bassist you can imagine.
