- When great musicians push themselves to do something different, it can be an exciting prospect. Christian McBride's New Jawn quartet is a great example of that. And when those musicians really enjoy that challenge, that's when the magic of jazz happens.
After a pair of successful trio albums and a Grammy-winning big band release a year ago, McBride's latest outfit is pianoless. In the tradition of similar bands, such as Ornette Coleman's two-horns-bass-and-drums quartet, the lack of chordal instruments seems to free up each player and challenge them at the same time.
The heart of the New Jawn ("jawn" is to Philadelphia what "joint" is to director Spike Lee, it's a "person, place or thing”) is the combination of McBride's solid bass work and the rapid-fire drumming of Nasheet Waits. Though they've known each other for years, this band marks their first opportunity to play together.
Musicians:
Christian McBride - bass
Nasheet Waits - drums
Marcus Strickland - tenor sax
Joshua Evans - trumpet
Audio:
John Kessler

Christian McBride is really an awesome dude he helps run a music camp for students who normally can't afford that stuff and has them later to be performing on stage with him and they were "monsters"! Changing lives literally!
Outstanding
wow … without keys and guitar… still it sounds so complete and rich in sound!
Saw them live a month ago.. was a truly spiritual experience!
Helluva drum sound!
Awesome music! I've listened to Christian McBride before on KPLU and then KNKX.
This group is really exciting!
Enriched with creativity and passion
Hope this lineup stays together . Chicago Jazz fest last summer 2019. Like being run over by a freight train..... in a good way of course.
As of next year 2023 I see they have shows with this line up,
Effortless 👌🏾
