Listeners everywhere are encouraged to expand their horizons and open their ears to something “Outside the Line” as bandleader Peter Brendler bravely embarks on an ambitious course in this 2014 album, his first for Posi-Tone. This quartet date features front line performances by saxophonist Rich Perry and trumpeter Peter Evans moving freely over the solid harmonic foundation of bassist Brendler and the explosive metrics of drummer Vinnie Sperrazza. The time has come to go travel beyond the simply straight ahead and go “Outside the Line” with his new chord-less quartet. We are confident that Brendler and his music will surely bring delight to the ears of serious listeners everywhere, as they navigate steadily away from the known and familiar to move swiftly out beyond into the uncharted depths of modern collective improvisation by utilizing new instrumentation to uncover a new sound in time and space.
