Squeeze It

• Track Listing

What happens musically with an unconventional yet a stellar meeting of the minds with the super talented Australian singer and keyboardist Rai Thistlethwayte, New York's very own electric Jazz-Blues plectorist Oz Noy and Atlanta based drummer Darren Stanley? It's called Ozone Squeeze and is one of music's hottest new bands today. This project encompasses all the jazz, blues, rock and pop background that these guys brings to the table. Oz Noy, probably the most well known among them all, having made an profound presence in the world of guitar, jazz and blues who has toured or recorded with Eric Johnson, Warren Haynes, John Medeski, Dave Weckl, Keith Carlock, Will Lee, Fred Wesley, Randy Brecker and so many others. On this outing Oz Noy takes a different musical approach based around great songs and compositions, as well as the singing of Rai Thistlethwayte, while Darren holds it all together with equal parts grace and funk. Ozone Squeeze is vocal-driven rock for the 21st Century while still being sophisticated and gutsy enough for the jazzers and funkateers.
