A mere five months into touring, the group is pulling off an inventive and wildly ambitious approach to the acoustic piano trio. Artfully navigating complex-meter grooves and transforming solo sections into miniature full-band improvisational journeys, the three musicians are an astounding display of virtuosity and jazz <em>bona fides<\/em>. But in what is perhaps more impressive, the group consistently manages to build these technical features into a cross-genre pollination that gives audiences something to latch on to. A simple melody or driving drumbeat grounds us in something relatable and inviting, and the technical sophistication is there as a tool to pull us further into a beautiful musical idea. The balance is masterful.<\/p>\n<p><span class=\"tve_image_frame\" style=\"width: 100%;\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"tve_image wp-image-45140 tve_evt_manager_listen tve_et_click\" alt=\"Reid Anderson (bass)\" width=\"1024\" height=\"752\" title=\"Reid Anderson (bass)\" data-id=\"45140\" src=\"\/\/www.dcmusicreview.com\/staging\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/9O6A0264.jpg\" style=\"width: 100%; -webkit-user-select: none;\" scale=\"0\" data-tcb-events=\"__TCB_EVENT_[{&quot;t&quot;:&quot;click&quot;,&quot;a&quot;:&quot;thrive_zoom&quot;,&quot;c&quot;:{&quot;id&quot;:&quot;45140&quot;,&quot;size&quot;:&quot;full&quot;}}]_TNEVE_BCT__\" srcset=\"https:\/\/dcmusicreview.com\/staging\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/9O6A0264.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/dcmusicreview.com\/staging\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/9O6A0264-150x110.jpg 150w, https:\/\/dcmusicreview.com\/staging\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/9O6A0264-300x220.jpg 300w, https:\/\/dcmusicreview.com\/staging\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/9O6A0264-768x564.jpg 768w, https:\/\/dcmusicreview.com\/staging\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/9O6A0264-163x120.jpg 163w, https:\/\/dcmusicreview.com\/staging\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/9O6A0264-64x47.jpg 64w, https:\/\/dcmusicreview.com\/staging\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/9O6A0264-220x162.jpg 220w, https:\/\/dcmusicreview.com\/staging\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/9O6A0264-136x100.jpg 136w, https:\/\/dcmusicreview.com\/staging\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/9O6A0264-368x270.jpg 368w, https:\/\/dcmusicreview.com\/staging\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/9O6A0264-340x250.jpg 340w, https:\/\/dcmusicreview.com\/staging\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/9O6A0264-218x160.jpg 218w, https:\/\/dcmusicreview.com\/staging\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/9O6A0264-350x257.jpg 350w, https:\/\/dcmusicreview.com\/staging\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/9O6A0264-511x375.jpg 511w, https:\/\/dcmusicreview.com\/staging\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/9O6A0264-635x466.jpg 635w, https:\/\/dcmusicreview.com\/staging\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/9O6A0264-763x560.jpg 763w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-caption-text thrv-inline-text\" data-css=\"tve-u-16400a19c33\">Reid Anderson (bass)<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">While the description likely seems familiar to fans of <strong>The Bad Plus<\/strong>, the band is in fact a new one by the same name. The trio of seventeen years parted ways with pianist <strong>Ethan Iverson<\/strong>&nbsp;last year, shocking devoted fans, and immediately picked up a new man behind the ivory,&nbsp;<strong>Orrin Evans<\/strong>. Iverson was not just one-third of the band\u2019s sound; he was a distinctive creative voice whose quirky choices and obscure musical sensibilities\u2014his fanaticism for avant-garde contemporary classical composer<strong>&nbsp;Gy\u00f6rgy Ligeti<\/strong>, for example\u2014provided crucial ingredients for the band\u2019s undeniable and often-celebrated originality. It\u2019s no surprise then that some fans and critics winced at the notion of The Bad Plus continuing on with a \u201creplacement\u201d pianist. In reality, no one could \u201creplace\u201d anyone in a band like The Bad Plus. A piece is lost, a piece is added, and even if it has the same name, a brand-new thing stands afterward.<\/p>\n<p><span class=\"tve_image_frame\" style=\"width: 100%;\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"tve_image wp-image-45130 tve_evt_manager_listen tve_et_click\" alt=\"Orrin Evans (piano)\" width=\"1024\" height=\"797\" title=\"Orrin Evans (piano)\" data-id=\"45130\" src=\"\/\/www.dcmusicreview.com\/staging\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/9O6A0095.jpg\" style=\"width: 100%; -webkit-user-select: none;\" scale=\"0\" data-tcb-events=\"__TCB_EVENT_[{&quot;t&quot;:&quot;click&quot;,&quot;a&quot;:&quot;thrive_zoom&quot;,&quot;c&quot;:{&quot;id&quot;:&quot;45130&quot;,&quot;size&quot;:&quot;full&quot;}}]_TNEVE_BCT__\" srcset=\"https:\/\/dcmusicreview.com\/staging\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/9O6A0095.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/dcmusicreview.com\/staging\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/9O6A0095-150x117.jpg 150w, https:\/\/dcmusicreview.com\/staging\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/9O6A0095-300x233.jpg 300w, https:\/\/dcmusicreview.com\/staging\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/9O6A0095-768x598.jpg 768w, https:\/\/dcmusicreview.com\/staging\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/9O6A0095-154x120.jpg 154w, https:\/\/dcmusicreview.com\/staging\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/9O6A0095-64x50.jpg 64w, https:\/\/dcmusicreview.com\/staging\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/9O6A0095-220x171.jpg 220w, https:\/\/dcmusicreview.com\/staging\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/9O6A0095-128x100.jpg 128w, https:\/\/dcmusicreview.com\/staging\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/9O6A0095-347x270.jpg 347w, https:\/\/dcmusicreview.com\/staging\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/9O6A0095-321x250.jpg 321w, https:\/\/dcmusicreview.com\/staging\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/9O6A0095-206x160.jpg 206w, https:\/\/dcmusicreview.com\/staging\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/9O6A0095-350x272.jpg 350w, https:\/\/dcmusicreview.com\/staging\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/9O6A0095-482x375.jpg 482w, https:\/\/dcmusicreview.com\/staging\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/9O6A0095-599x466.jpg 599w, https:\/\/dcmusicreview.com\/staging\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/9O6A0095-719x560.jpg 719w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-caption-text thrv-inline-text\" data-css=\"tve-u-16400a1f05b\">Orrin Evans (piano)&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span class=\"fr-placeholder\" style=\"font-size: 14px; line-height: 28px; margin-top: 0px; padding-top: 0px; padding-left: 0px; margin-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; margin-right: 0px; text-align: start;\"><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">On Sunday, June 10<sup>th<\/sup>, as a part of DC Jazz Fest, that new thing\u2014the project of&nbsp;<strong>Reid Anderson<\/strong>&nbsp;(bass),&nbsp;<strong>David King<\/strong>&nbsp;(drums), and&nbsp;<strong>Orrin Evans<\/strong> (piano)\u2014gave music fans plenty of reasons to be excited. Blending with King\u2019s frenetic energy and Anderson\u2019s precise backbone, Evans brought lush chord voicings, focused melodic development, and a smoothly flowing right hand. The nerves that had swirled around the January studio release <a href=\"https:\/\/youtu.be\/Ikioo--iFUo?t=1m43s\" style=\"-webkit-user-select: none;\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><em>Never Stop II<\/em>, recorded after the band had barely a few rehearsals under its belt<\/a>, appeared nowhere to be found right from the get-go in the solo section of &nbsp;the opening tune &#8220;Big Eater,&#8221; as Evans boldly offered his take on the Bad Plus classic and teased out a dissonant theme in the second chorus. &#8220;Hurricane Birds&#8221; again saw Evans taking an aggressive tack, building the tension far beyond the studio version and culminating in several powerful stabs at the upper register. With boldness also came ingenuity: &nbsp;Toward the end of the set-closing \u201cSeams,\u201d Evans opted to build by rapidly hammering at just a single note for several bars, seeming to cue the band to blossom around it and fill up the space. And while the aggression and creativity serve as familiar elements from the band&#8217;s original lineup, Evans also offers stylistic features that remind us this band is different. Hints of <strong>Keith Jarrett<\/strong>, for example, flowed naturally from Evans&#8217; chord movement at several parts in the set and felt like fresh territory for the group, particularly in certain sections of &#8220;Safe Passage&#8221; and &#8220;Lean in the Archway.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">Though all eyes were on Evans as the new guy in town, Anderson and King contributed stellar performances as usual. Often Anderson is the glue holding things together, staying relatively true to the composed form, but on occasion he grabs a few notes that demonstrate how hard he\u2019s listening to his bandmates. &nbsp;In one notable moment on the bluesy \u201cKeep the Bugs of Your Glass and the Bears Off Your Ass,\u201d Anderson temporarily abandoned his post in the low end and ventured up the neck, dancing in triplets to match King\u2019s hi-hat before quickly hopping back into his structural role.<\/p>\n<p><span class=\"tve_image_frame\" style=\"width: 100%;\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"tve_image wp-image-45139 tve_evt_manager_listen tve_et_click\" alt=\"David King (Drums)\" width=\"1024\" height=\"819\" title=\"David King (Drums)\" data-id=\"45139\" src=\"\/\/www.dcmusicreview.com\/staging\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/9O6A0308.jpg\" style=\"width: 100%; -webkit-user-select: none;\" scale=\"0\" data-tcb-events=\"__TCB_EVENT_[{&quot;t&quot;:&quot;click&quot;,&quot;a&quot;:&quot;thrive_zoom&quot;,&quot;c&quot;:{&quot;id&quot;:&quot;45139&quot;,&quot;size&quot;:&quot;full&quot;}}]_TNEVE_BCT__\" srcset=\"https:\/\/dcmusicreview.com\/staging\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/9O6A0308.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/dcmusicreview.com\/staging\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/9O6A0308-150x120.jpg 150w, https:\/\/dcmusicreview.com\/staging\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/9O6A0308-300x240.jpg 300w, https:\/\/dcmusicreview.com\/staging\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/9O6A0308-768x614.jpg 768w, https:\/\/dcmusicreview.com\/staging\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/9O6A0308-64x51.jpg 64w, https:\/\/dcmusicreview.com\/staging\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/9O6A0308-220x176.jpg 220w, https:\/\/dcmusicreview.com\/staging\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/9O6A0308-125x100.jpg 125w, https:\/\/dcmusicreview.com\/staging\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/9O6A0308-338x270.jpg 338w, https:\/\/dcmusicreview.com\/staging\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/9O6A0308-313x250.jpg 313w, https:\/\/dcmusicreview.com\/staging\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/9O6A0308-200x160.jpg 200w, https:\/\/dcmusicreview.com\/staging\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/9O6A0308-350x280.jpg 350w, https:\/\/dcmusicreview.com\/staging\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/9O6A0308-469x375.jpg 469w, https:\/\/dcmusicreview.com\/staging\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/9O6A0308-583x466.jpg 583w, https:\/\/dcmusicreview.com\/staging\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/9O6A0308-700x560.jpg 700w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-caption-text thrv-inline-text\" data-css=\"tve-u-16400a20f8c\">&nbsp;David King (drums)<\/p>\n<p><span class=\"fr-placeholder\" style=\"font-size: 14px; line-height: 28px; margin-top: 0px; padding-top: 0px; padding-left: 0px; margin-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; margin-right: 0px; text-align: start;\"><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">King, meanwhile, is an ebullient fountain of constantly evolving ideas and rhythmic variations. Shifting accents in the barely audible snare hits in \u201cHurricane Birds,\u201d for instance, made the groove an unavoidable magnet for the audience\u2019s attention. At other times King\u2019s exploration is much more out front, a result of attentive listening and reacting to Evans or, as in \u201cSeams,\u201d running through free-meter abstraction that seems to put each drum on the kit into conversation with the rest. To top off the night, King took a romp through Aphex Twin\u2019s \u201cFlim,\u201d expertly mimicking the electronica artist\u2019s signature fluid and stuttering rhythmic style. The tune displays King\u2019s unique sensibilities behind the kit so astoundingly, it\u2019s no wonder the band has chosen to keep it on for the new era.<\/p>\n<h5>Never Stopping and Always Looking Ahead<\/h5>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">The new Bad Plus looks to be overwhelmingly forward-looking. Only four of the eleven songs came from pre-2018, and the cuts off the new record consistently displayed a more potent energy and wider dynamic range than on the album. A rejuvenated and inspired Bad Plus is on the road again, and if Sunday night\u2019s performance is any indication, the trio will continue to grow beyond the baggage of the Iverson era and into something brilliant in its own right.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<h4 data-css=\"tve-u-165ed6e20e0\"><strong>Setlist<\/strong><\/h4>\n<h4 data-css=\"tve-u-165ed6e20e0\"><strong>Setlist<\/strong><\/h4>\n<h4 data-css=\"tve-u-165ed6e20e0\"><strong>Setlist<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p><span class=\"tve_not_editable tve_toggle\"><\/span><\/p>\n<h4 class=\"tve_editable\" data-css=\"tve-u-163da2a2e81\">Click here to see the setlist for The Bad Plus&#8217; performance at City Winery DC on June 10, 2018<\/h4>\n<p data-css=\"tve-u-163fe17e0a0\"><strong><u>Performance<\/u><\/strong><\/p>\n<ol class=\"\">\n<li>Big Eater<\/li>\n<li>Keep The Bugs Off Your Glass And The Bears Off Your Ass<\/li>\n<li>Hurricane Birds<\/li>\n<li>1983 Regional All-Star<\/li>\n<li>People Like You<\/li>\n<li>Safe Passage<\/li>\n<li>Lean in the Archway<\/li>\n<li>Boffadem<\/li>\n<li>Trace<\/li>\n<li data-css=\"tve-u-163f0309771\">Seams<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p data-css=\"tve-u-163fe17e0a0\"><strong><u>Encore<\/u><\/strong><\/p>\n<p data-css=\"tve-u-163fcef3c24\">&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;1.
