Having collaborated on Bowie’s final album, Blackstar, the shapeshifting legend’s profound influence inhabits saxophonist Donny McCaslin’s powerhouse new music, which “steps boldly into hybrid, tough-to-classify musical terrain, grafting sleek, emotive electrojazz onto lush, proggy art rock” (Rolling Stone). Gritty grooves that take cues from hip hop and electronica, crafty hooks, and soaring post-rock are tied together by McCaslin’s high-octane tenor, Jason Lindner keys, Zach Danziver drums, Tim Lefebvre bass, and local indie/alt-rock luminary Ryan Dahle (Limblifter, Mounties) on vocals.
