Albey’s Bandwidth Outrio

Jackson Krall, my brother-man of many years, is truly one of the great drummers of our time. For the last 20 years he has been an integral part of the creation the NYC out scene with players such as William Parker, Roy Campbell Jr, Marco Eneidi, Glen Spearman… He is currently playing with Cecil Taylor, as well as his own “Secret Music Society”.

Joe Giardullo and I have not known each other long, but our mystical musical journeys have brought our paths together at this time, for a lasting friendship of kindred spirits. He is a player with tremendous intuition and listening powers. His list of playing credits is extensive, the mighty Joe McPhee, Steve Lacy, Lewis Porter… He currently travels the globe playing his music.

I’m Albey Balgochian and my journey is music. I have played many genres of music; blues, reggae, R&B and hip hop, but my passion has always been improvised music. These many influences are the roots of my free funk groove. I’ve played with some amazing cats, Laurence Cook, Sabir Matteen, Dennis Warren… and tonight my ‘Outrio’ brings together old friend and new for a Zeitgeist performance.

Within each of us is a bandwidth of Spiritual Peace, when spirits dance, the bandwidth of peace expands in the Universe. Bandwidth was created to uplift and nurture that band, spreading the joy of music, the word of peace and the power of personal spirit. One love!
