Details:
In a musical age of predominantly solo careers, Bad Touch – alto saxophonist Loren Stillman, guitarist Nate Radley, organist Gary Versace, and drummer Ted Poor – has set out to nurture their identity as a collective. With a shared goal of developing improvised music, these likeminded musicians draw on a wide spectrum of jazz improvisational techniques within original compositions. Bad Touch believes that mutual friendship and commitment yields the most fulfilling musical adventures, and aims for their work to reflect this philosophy.
As freelance musicians, each has collaborated, recorded, and traveled internationally with some of the most established names in jazz, including Bill Frisell, Paul Motian, Cuong Vu, Chris Potter, Ben Monder, Billy Hart, John Scofield, Maria Schneider, John Abercrombie, Al Foster and Charlie Haden.
Like a Magic Kiss marks the first self-release by the collective. Tour dates are available at https://www.tradebit.com
“This exploratory quartet relies on the collective input of the alto saxophonist Loren Stillman, the guitarist Nate Radley, the organist Gary Versace and the drummer Ted Poor: resourceful improvisers, to a man.” (Chinen, NyTimes)
“Originally the brainchild of local saxist Loren Stillman, Bad Touch has evolved into a collective quartet, featuring the reedman, guitarist Nate Radley, organist Gary Versace and drummer Ted Poor. The band’s quirkily soulful mix hinges on Versace’s vintage tones.” (Chinen, NyTimes)
