"Monster's Ball" - Factor5

"Monster's Ball" is an old-school Jazz Fusion project - Inspired by the originators of Fusion in the 1970's. I wrote arrangements of beloved tunes and focussed on showcasing each members' personality and playing style. I built Factor5 specifically around these musicians as I was inspired and intrigued by their unique sound, artistry and approach to music. Tracks 1-5 were recorded in 1998 at Red Barn Studios in CT. Tracks 6 and 7 were recorded in The Basement, Trumbull, CT in 1999. Tracks 7-9 were recorded at Tedesco Studios in Paramus, NJ in 2017.
