John Reynolds Bartlit beats drums like nobody's business. Best known as New Mexico's hottest jazz drummer, but that doesn't even scratch the surface of his multi-instrumental genius. He's done everything — from percussion with the NM Symphony Orchestra to heavy metal vaudeville with his brain-child Scumbaag. He even did Scumbaag with the Philharmonic Orchestra! He has worked with composers such as John Cage, Lou Harrison and James Tenney. His work here answers the question of who are you gonna call when you want a producer/arranger/vocalist/percussionist who is also plays jaw harp / saw / banjo / electric guitar / bass / glockenspiel / beercan / and more then you can even remember? One Man, John Bartlit! Daniel Ward is known in New Mexico (and around the world) as a frighteningly good guitar player. His Flamenco playing regularly turns audiences inside-out at El Meson in SantaFe and other venues all over the state. His CD "After The Storm" is a must hear. Daniel also plays jazz and electric guitar like a fiend, was a founding member of Skumbaag, and is an educator at universities and high schools across the country and internationally. Recording engineer by day, arranger, producer and gigging musician by night- but no one knew he was a master whistler until this recording. Kristen Loree can sing like an angel and croak like a frog.
