Metalwood - Twenty

Facts With two Juno awards, five Juno nominations, and a host of other international awards, Metalwood is arguably Canada's most decorated jazz group. Between 1997 and 2003 the name Metalwood became synonymous with groove-orinetated electric jazz, winning the band devoted fans around the world. Taking their cue from the likes of Weather Report, Miles Davis, and Return to Forever, the band developed a sound and style all their own, and in the process, the four members (Mike Murley, Brad Turner, Chris Tarry, and Ian Froman) cemented their reputations as world-class improvisors and composers. Many wondered if Metalwood would ever return. Cellar Live is proud to say... The wait is finally over. Twenty years after their Juno award-winning debut, fourteen years since their last release, Metalwood's album "Twenty" takes the band's genre-defining sound to new heights, while paying homage to the cohesive energy that made the group an international success. "Twenty" is more than a comeback. It is arguably Metalwood's best album to date.
