IRIS - IRIS (2024) [Official Digital Download 24/48]

With their self-titled debut album, IRIS looks to make their mark on the current sonic landscape of improvised music. Featuring Arman Sangalang, Kirby Fellis, Austyn Menk, Morgan Turner and Paul Barrllies, the album is “a beautiful representation of jazz music in its current attire,” as described by guitar virtuoso Bobby Broom. The album allows each member of the collective to shine individually through carefully crafted compositions and solos, while still acting as a cohesive unit.

"The band promises what is to come from Chicago's next generation of jazz musicians—a mosaic of the old and the new, the contemplative and the jubilant, the personal and the universal. This album is not just a listen; it is an experience, inviting one into the inner worlds of its creators with a sonic kaleidoscope that invites the listener to peer through its lens and discover new hues." - All About Jazz
