With legendary bop drummer Lewis Hayes at the helm, Jacob Fischer-disciple and guitarist Jacob Artved swings with a team of bassist David Wong and pianist Jeb Patton on this classy collection from 3 nights in July, 2019. Artved’s tone is dark and rich on the pulsating “Exodus” and palpably soft on his own “Nelia”. A reflective “I Remember Bird” and a teaming with Patton on “Who Cares” display a rich sense of teamwork, while Hayes’ perfect drive with the cymbals on “Dumbo” and the hep bopper “Teef” makes bop fans smile. Fingerpoppin’ time.
