Brian Haas and Josh Raymer at RecordBar

For nearly 20 years, pianist Brian Haas has led Jacob Fred Jazz Odyssey (JFJO) into appearances at worldwide jazz festivals and international acclaim. After years of touring, a well-deserved break has inspired Haas to compose a suite of 11 compositions for piano and percussion. The result is a new album called Frames. This music weaves through the 12-note scale, telling the story of an imagined life with an intelligence that sticks in your head. Percussion accents the piano’s intimate and melodic journey, which is sparked with moments both playful and driving. Haas and JFJO drummer Josh Raymer weave into the RecordBar Sunday night to perform selections from Frames and other songs.
