about

Since the Stein/Smith/Shead trio's inception in the fall of 2021 they have quickly become one of the most creative and prolific bands working in the fields of jazz and improvised music. Hum see's the group moving deeper into their collective language, producing an album that is unlike any bass clarinet trio album recorded to date. Throughout this recording Jason Stein proves again and again that he is indeed the greatest living bass clarinetist working in improvised music today. Damon Smith, one of the most innovative bass players around, also shines on this recording, delving into deep grooves while maintaining a sideways and often detour inducing approach to improvisation. Adam Shead, the youngest member of the trio, has made his presence known with an impressive gamut of creative approaches to his instrument; providing an incredibly propulsive energy to the music. The recording at hand provides a new lens for which to understand the classic horn trio setting, and will undoubtedly become a recording of historical importance.
