Listen to Blue Shift

A trio consisting of Carol Liebowitz (piano), Adam Lane (bass) and Andrew Drury (drums), and as In Real Time the 3 bring a wealth of experience and skill to improvisational, jazz and classically influenced songs.

The title track occupies the middle spot and moves calmly, initially, and then methodically as hypnotic keys, bouncy bass and firm drumming aligns with awe, while “Sequoia Moon” emits a darker quality amid the rumbling and atmospheric gesturing.

“Passacaglia” exits the listen, and spends 12 minutes impressing us with its free jazz exploration that never stays in one place too long.
