The Tiptons Sax Quartet plus drums
T I P
Lush saxophone phrases, furious improvisations, passionate vocals - four women from Seattle and a drummer from Salzburg know how to inspire. In the manner of a micro-big band, they deliver a quirky and authentic mixture of sounds and styles with hammering riffs, passionate solos between controlled chaos and subtle group sound: from New Orleans jump groove to South American rhythms, hip-hop and Balkan beat to swing, funk, ska, noise bop, Italian folk and hints of klezmer.
The five musicians have honed their skills on worldwide tours and festivals alongside Bill Frisell, Marceo Parker, Bobby McFerrin or Dizzy Gillespie. - campus inter|national // 107 // jazz - Amy Denio (as, voc), Jessica Lurie (ts, voc), Sue Orfield (ts, voc), Tina Richerson (bars, voc) and Robert Kainar (dr)
