Phronesis Live on Bimhuis TV (Video)

April 9, 2019 By Anthony Dean-Harris

One of the finest piano/bass/drums trio of the Western Hemisphere, Phronesis, have been touring through Europe lately, uniting together again after taking some time for assorted solo work and finding that magic together once again. Fortunately, the Dutch club Bimhuis recorded their March 30th set in Amsterdam and it's the contemplative build one would expect from these guys. … [Read more...]

Jeff Ballard – ‘Fairgrounds’ (Album Review)

March 12, 2019 By Anthony Dean-Harris

It's hard not to love Jeff Ballard's solo work. He's a percussionist who isn't afraid to get weird. He's probably best known for his branching out work with the Brad Mehldau Trio, but that's an acoustic group. They're a trio, one Ballard has been a part of for the last fourteen years.

December 14, 2018 By Anthony Dean-Harris

Anton Eger

Drummer Anton Eger is the rambunctiously explosive energy of Phronesis, one of the most brilliant piano-bass-drum trios on Earth period. Though while he may be best known for his work in that group, he has branched out in support of others' releases, but it was only a matter of time before he would make a statement all his own. On February 8th, Edition Records is releasing Æ, … [Read more...]

Phronesis’ New Album ‘We Are All’ Reviewed

September 18, 2018 By Anthony Dean-Harris

We Are All, the eighth album from piano-bass-drums trio Phronesis gets directly to the point. It's a tidy album of six songs full of the rising energy, quick turns, precision stops, and intoxicating style that the band has exhibited from the very beginning. Thematically, this release is about togetherness and balance, and this music could be argued to have these traits, but to … [Read more...]
