Solid Sender

Solid Sender

Sex Mob mastermind Steven Bernstein enjoys the distinction of being the world's best (read: only) slide-trumpet player. As musical director for John Lurie's Lounge Lizards, Bernstein developed his trumpet skills as well as an offbeat sense of humor and a rampant unpredictability. On their second CD, Sex Mob mixes raucous free jazz and inventive original compositions with instrumental versions of songs by folks like Kurt Cobain ("About a Girl"), Duke Ellington ("The Mooch"), Jerry Garcia ("Ripple"), and the Rolling Stones ("Ruby Tuesday"). Assimilating Dixieland jazz, modern funk, hip-hop, dub, and a myriad of rock influences, Bernstein, alto saxophonist Briggan Krauss, bassist Tony Scherr, and drummer Kenny Wollesen engage in a kaleidoscopic tour of the postmodern world. Freewheeling and displaying plenty of soul, this is solid entertainment. --Mitch Meyers
