Why this name?
We actually started out more of a standard Jazz Quintet, and hence the name "Jazz in Five." We later became a quartet and wrote more of our own, more inventive material.
Do you play live?
We do play live. We've played a couple times at the Center for the Arts in Natick, a fabulous venue, as well as places like Ryles Jazz Club in Cambridge. We've also done school events and private parties.
How, do you think, does the internet (or mp3) change the music industry?
As long as it's done with artists' and copyright holders' consent, it can only enrich our musical lives and in the long run contribute to the industry's economic growth.
Would you sign a record contract with a major label?
Who knows...
