Loren Pickford Quartet June 28, 2011

Many people in the area only know Loren Pickford as the jazz musician who settled in Kansas City in the wake of Katrina. While it's a compelling soundbite, there's so much more to the former Louisianan. The world music themes and spiritual explorations heard in his playing evoke John and Alice Coltrane. It's wondrous music of the highest order.
