Plimley/Babin/Drake
Throughout his distinguished career, Vancouver pianist Paul Plimley has continually reasserted his role as one of the foremost improvising musicians, as a soloist in his longtime partnership with bassist Lisle Ellis, with the NOW Orchestra, and otherwise. Plimley achieves his own voice through the blending of a passionate connection to the American improvised music tradition and European classical/20th century heritage.

Phil Emerson is one of America's best kept musical secrets..... but not for long. Soon everyone will gain exposure to his mastery of the guitar. Many people play the guitar, but few are as authoritative as Mr Emerson. His vocabulary continues to grow in leaps and bounds.
Tommy Babin’s energetic, adventurous spirit and soulful bass playing is an essential component of our music. He's a foundation for all to be inspired by.
