3Ology is a Colorado-based trio exploring the possibilities of improvisation and groove in an angular and fresh way. Members of the group draw on influences as diverse as Michael Brecker, Rush, Yellowjackets, Miles Davis, Living Colour, U2, John Coltrane, and Me'shell N'Degeocello. On this latest release trumpeter Ron Miles joins saxophonist Doug Carmichael, bassist Tim Carmichael and drummer Jon Powers to produce a paradoxical sound that is both avant-garde and melodic. The band's free improvisation mixed with genre-jumping grooves creates an infectious sound that is all their own.
