Buffalo Collision

Buffalo Collision is a new band that sees Ethan Iverson and Dave King of The Bad Plus pair up with New York downtown improvising legends Tim Berne and Hank Roberts to create one of the most exciting improvising outfits around today. This band is an inspired meeting of two generations of improvisers. Ethan Iverson and Dave King are two thirds of jazz's most recent success story, The Bad Plus while Tim Berne and Hank Roberts made their name at the high point of the downtown scene some twenty years earlier. This “collision” is a busy and hypnotic band, shaking hands across a generation.
