Whether exploding off the stage at Glastonbury, Fuji Rock Festival, or a sweaty nightclub, Soil & “Pimp” Sessions are one of the most engaging live bands in jazz. Shamanic hype man Shacho plays the role of agitator while the group flat out slays, creating a feedback loop of energy between band and audience. It’s an ecstatic, almost aggressively entertaining molten mix that’s stirred up by Tabu Zombie trumpet, Motoharu sax, Josei piano, and the pulsing rhythm section of Akita Goldman bass, and Midorin drums.
