Paul Dietrich’s Elemental Quartet

A new venture for leader-composer Paul Dietrich, reflecting a return to basics and simplicity after several large-ensemble projects.  In this powerhouse quartet of Midwestern stalwarts expect to hear folk-inspired jazz music syled after musicians such as Bill Frisell, Ron Miles, and Brad Mehldau.
