Saxophonist AJ Kluth’s new ensemble, Aldric, is a collective of some of Chicago’s busiest musical improvisers who borrow from the worlds of jazz, rock, indie, world, and noise. In addition to Kluth’s saxophone and melodica, the band features guitarist Toby Summerfield, trumpeter James Davis, drummer Quin Kirchner and bassist Dan Thatcher. Their sound incorporates both acoustic and electronic elements and bears clear influence from contemporary luminaries Kneebody, Dave Douglas, and Bill Frisell in it’s penchant for melody, group improvisation, space, noise, and groove. Think clouds of sound you can move to – they are! “There’s a lot of groove here, a lot of fusion, a lot of surprising angles.” – All Music Guide
