"Totally original... Funky as all hell... this ain’t any Kenny G oatmeal for folks with no teeth."

- Mike Greenblatt Classicalite (New York USA)

Under the leadership of JUNO-nominated and 10x Global Music Award–winning jazz pianist NICK MACLEAN SNAGGLE feat the ALI BROS launches into a daring new chapter: a suite of electrifying works inspired by the science fiction grandmaster ISAAC ASIMOV and his legendary FOUNDATION saga. Often described as “Canada’s answer to Snarky Puppy” the band goes interstellar using their fearless sound likened to a cross between electric-era Miles Davis and Rage Against the Machine to map the rise and fall of galactic empires.

Front and center are the ALI BROS the near-telepathic horn duo of BROWNMAN ALI (Guru Jay-Z Randy Brecker) on trumpet and MARCUS ALI (Matt Dusk Jason Wilson Mr Something Something) on saxophone. Like Asimov’s psychohistorians they shape the future with every phrase weaving complex probabilities into sonic reality. Joining them on this voyage are some of Toronto’s finest electric-jazz explorers: JAY YOO on guitar MATT GRUEBNER on bass and ADAM MANSFIELD on drums.

With performances swinging from Seldon–like moments of quiet calculated clarity to cataclysmic bursts of energy worthy of a crumbling empire... Snaggle’s new repertoire doesn’t just pay homage to ASIMOV it channels the spirit of his storytelling: daring complex and endlessly imaginative. For fans of Jazz Science Fiction and the BOUNDLESS possibilities that emerge when the two intertwine... this is a voyage not to be missed!
