With the supremely talented Camille Thurman contributing a track each on saxophone and vocals, the ensemble can easily be considered an "all-star" group, with trumpeters Eddie Allen and Valery Ponomarev, saxophonists, Don Braden, Bruce Williams, trombonist James Burton III and a dream rhythm section of James Weidman, Harvie S, Steve Johns and Hand himself. The resulting band is at once bold & beautiful, swinging and suave while consistently playing the imaginative arrangements with extraordinarily nuanced musicianship.
