Featuring Jamie Masefield, Jon Fishman & Danton Boller:

Jazz arrives in a variety of shapes and sounds, including the piano horns and guitar—but the mandolin? Jamie Masefield heads this unique trio, The Jazz Mandolin Project. The Jazz Mandolin Project is obviously not your run-of-the-mill trio. Even the group’s name sounds more like an experiment than a band, scientists instead of musicians. And to a certain extent, the members of the Jazz Mandolin Project are scientists, pushing the boundaries of jazz beyond the typical through experimentation, all the while maintaining a sense of the acceptable and accessible.
