Trumpeter Darren Johnston likes variety and challenges. He recorded with both Fred Frith and Marcus Shelby while traveling to Chicago for 'Life In Time' to form a quartet with Geof Bradfield (tenor & soprano saxophones, bass clarinet), Clark Sommers (bass) and Dana Hall (drums) .
They only bring their own songs completely soaked in a narrative tradition and then frame them in an updated version of post bop. Certainly also for fans of Rob Mazurek and Chad Taylor and the various groups that make music in their wake.
