Precarious Towers - Ten Stories [CD]

Ten Stories is the second album by Precarious Towers, a Midwestern all-star band featuring Downbeat ‘rising star’ alto saxophonist and flutist Sharel Cassity, vibraphonist Mitchell Shiner and drummer Devin Drobka, and bassist John Christensen and pianist Johannes Wallmann. All are accomplished band leaders and recording artists, and the album features compositions by each of the quintet’s members. Moods range from fiery to introspective, but the common threads are joy and collaboration.
