Even Odds

by Dan Weiss

supported by

Giles Wonderful, invigorating music. This band is so perfectly matched: all three members just make it sound so easy to play the gnarliest rhythmic puzzles, but at the same time can let rip and push the limits without ever sounding like they could get lost. The creativity and variety of response from Mitchell & Zenon on the tracks based on Weiss's beats/'exercises' are wonderful demonstrations of how limitless this music can be.

about

"★★★★ "The innovative American percussionist/composer Dan Weiss had long been making absorbing jazz out of composing group music from drum patterns outward. Even Odds deploys these methods in even bolder ways.” - JazzWise

"The music has a reckless abandon feel yet never loses its way . . . This is such an interesting sonic journey, one that never runs out of ideas or surprises . . . worth exploring time and again." - Step Tempest

"The twenty wildly free and engrossing tracks of Even Odds has a resolute consciousness that is hard to defy." - All About Jazz

"Weiss's trust in his collaborators' creative impulses is amply rewarded by the depth of expression in their responses" - The Stash Dauber

“[Weiss is] best known as a virtuosic, in-demand jazz drummer... and an ambitious, imaginative bandleader.” – Hank Shteamer, The New York Times
