Sold out in NYC @ Le Poisson Rouge

I’ve recently started listening a bit to them and I’m a bit intrigued

I am kind of amazed that they have such a following for the type of improvised music they play when many other great improvising ensembles barely fill small rooms.

maybe I would understand more if I see them live but per the above sold out before I even knew the shows existed

The live experience is very different to the studio recordings many of which have overdubbed instruments. The live albums will give you a better idea.

They are one of the very best improvising groups that I've seen and I've seen them a fair few times now. I'm due to see them again in June.
