On the West Coast: John Rangel-piano Trevor Ware-bass

InfluencesThe band is an original brew. For me as a listener, I love so many things: jazz, funk, rock, hip hop, R&B...whatever catches my ear. And it's all in my music somewhere. I just want to make sure the freedom is there. I like discovering new sounds, new music, new directions and that's what this bands about: developing it's own language. We have a great personnel that's been together for a while, and you hear the unity in the music. Being a real band, is important to me. The rhythm section becomes a magic carpet for me to ride on. It carries the music far and wide. As the band continues to change and grow, the music will take some different paths as part of it's evolution.

   About Eric Person

Renowned saxophonist Eric Person has now released his new CD, Rhythm Edge. It includes two of his favorite previously recorded compositions and others that break ground on a new vision in Eric's music . The CD features dynamic performances from trombonist Robin Eubanks, trumpeter Ingrid Jensen, guitarist Cary Denigris, percussionsit Danny Sadownick and Eric's working band, Meta-Four: pianist Jarod Kashkin, bassist Adam Armstrong, and drummer Peter O' Brien.

Eric has performed with some musics most talented and progressive artists: Dave Holland, McCoy Tyner, World Saxophone Quartet, Vernon Reid, Ben Harper, Chico Hamilton, Ronald Shannon Jackson and Donald Byrd among others. His broad range of experience has contributed greatly to his mature alto and soprano sound, and his skills as an arranger and composer. He's toured extensively throughout the United States, Canada, South America, Europe and Japan.

What makes Rhythm Edge different from Person's other CD's is the amount of different textures, flavors, and vibes that he's got flowing through this disc. The songs are funky, grooving, percolating, and bringing a feeling that you won't forget any time soon.

You can purchase Rhythm Edge and any of Eric Person's CD's at: amazon.com, iTunes.com, cdbaby.com and other fine online stores that serve up downloads.
