The acclaimed-yet-controversial piano trio The Bad Plus will be the first act to perform at Jazz at the Bistro in the New Year of 2007, as they come to town for a four-night stand at the club from Januarry 3-6. Post-Dispatch freelancer Dan Durchholz has an interview in Thursday's paper with the the band's pianist Ethan Iverson, and you can read it online here.
If you'd like to hear some samples of their music, check the band's MySpace page, or grab a track from one or more of the music sharing blogs indexed by Hype Machine. You can also see StLJN's previous coverage of The Bad Plus, including a couple of music videos, by starting here.
And down below is yet another short video of The Bad Plus, one previously unseen here. This clip shows them performing a composition apparently entitled "And Here We Test Our Powers Of Observation," from the UK TV program Later, hosted by Jools Holland.
