Spin Cycle celebrates 5 years! 2019 marks five years that Spin Cycle has been touring and recording around the US and Canada….All new music and a March hit at Smalls Jazz Club in NYC are on tap in the coming weeks…
Characteristics that made the group’s initial release so appealing- strong melodic hooks, rock-solid grooves, advanced harmonies and aggressive, deftly-executed improvisations-have been refined by two years of intensive touring and are displayed even more cohesively on Assorted Colors. With this sophomore release, it’s clear that Spin Cycle is on a roll, with momentum to spare.- Downbeat Magazine
