The Bad Plus, helming the power jazz revolution of the early 2000s, were one of the main inspirations behind the creation of this website. We have always admired their blend of unbounded creativity and carefree playfulness, often coupled with significant exuberance and effervescence. Producing several flawless albums over the span of the last eighteen years, the group markedly contributed to deviating the trajectory of the jazz genre in a new, bold and exciting direction, much to the dismay of their predecessors, the Neoclassicist Young Lions.

Last year, the band made a roster change, welcoming pianist Orrin Evans, and self-released the critically-acclaimed Never Stop II. Building off the momentum, The Bad Plus have just announced a new opus, Activate Infinity, making the jump to UK label Edition Records.

You can stream “Avail”, the first single from the record below, a quintessential Reid Anderson composition highlighted by the prolific drumming of Dave King. Pre-Order Activate Infinity now and be on the lookout for the trio’s extensive American and European tour dates listed below.

Activate Infinity, the new album by The Bad Plus, comes to Edition Records on CD and digital October 25 and on vinyl November 15.
