Fast Citizens explore the boundaries between composition and improvisation . Keefe Jackson, saxophonist and principal composer, formed the Chicago group in 2003 and they soon held a residency at the famous Hideout club where the group developed a formidable cohesiveness. Their music has broadened, even redefined the idea of a "cooperative" band. The group includes saxophonist Aram Shelton & cellist Fred Lonberg-Holm, who also compose, and cornetist Josh Berman, drummer Frank Rosaly & bassist Anton Hatwich. Berman, Jackson & Rosaly are also members of the Chicago Luzern Exchange, whose 2005 release Several Lights (Delmark 561) received great critical and audience acclaim.

Reviews

Jazz Review - Roger Thomas

In stylistic terms the band is entirely fearless in venturing into all kinds of territory and there's clearly no shortage of instrumental talent within the group's ranks.
