MEBANE, NC -- Bay
Area jazz-jam supergroup GARAJ MAHAL
has become the sixth act signed to Harmonized
Records, the offshoot label from LEEWAY�S
HOME GROWN MUSIC NETWORK, in its first year of operation.
Called �one of
the most talked about groups in jazz and jam today� by Mountain
Express, GARAJ MAHAL unites one of jazz's most innovative performers,
bassist Kai Eckhardt, with acclaimed
classical/jazz guitarist Fareed Haque,
drummer Alan Hertz and prodigious
young keyboardist Eric Levy. Between
them, the members of GARAJ MAHAL have accompanied the likes of Sting, Dizzy
Gillespie, Stanley Clarke, Al DiMeola, Steve Smith�s Vital Information, Bela
Fleck, Bill Evans, John McLaughlin Trio, Steve Kimock, KVHW, Edgar Meyer and
dozens more.
The unparalleled
pedigree of GARAJ MAHAL, combined with its buzz on the improv scene, makes the
band a particularly exciting new member of the fast-blossoming Harmonized
family.
�Each member of
this band is such an accomplished player,� says Lee
Crumpton, co-founder with Brian
Asplin of Harmonized Records. �I consider these guys musicians�
musicians who are capable of creating all sorts of opportunities for us -- and
so, apparently, do more and more people out there on the scene.�
