Airports for Light
   Ken Vandermark (tenor saxophone and clarinets)
   Dave Rempis (alto and tenor saxophones)
   Jeb Bishop (trombone)
  
Kent Kessler (bass)
  
Tim Daisy (drums)

The Vandermark 5’s first studio album in two years further integrates and resolves the potent musical ideas and structural complexities that surfaced on their previous effort, 2001’s experimental Acoustic Machine.

If that’s not enough (and as is now the tradition, inaugurated with 2000’s Burn The Incline): the first 1500 copies of Airports contain a full-length bonus disc documenting The V5 paying tribute to their favorite tunes by jazz monolith Sonny Rollins, including his “Alfie Suite”, recently recorded live by Malachi Ritscher at Chicago’s stalwart Empty Bottle.

Airports for Light is not to be missed if you’re remotely interested in the future of jazz. It seems clear now that with every record, this remarkable quintet is forging a signature musical vocabulary... crafting a spectacular body of work mindful of the jazz canon’s towering antecedents, while enigmatically becoming theirs alone.
