I had the good fortune of witnessing the premiere of this work in Tulsa, and I was simply astounded by its power.

Press on The Race Riot Suite

“The new Jacob Fred Jazz Odyssey (+ horns) album might be their best” –NPR’s A Blog Supreme

“The Race Riot Suite isn't merely a serious contender for album-of-the-year. It's one of the most compelling jazz-based albums of the new millennium.” –Plastic Sax
