Uncorked: Chris Greene Quartet

The Chris Greene Quartet - led by the Evanston, IL saxophone colossus - played its first gig in 2005 and has since become one of the most highly visible, award-winning, and critically lauded bands in the Chicago area. While honoring jazz's tradition, the band incorporates elements of funk, hip-hop, rock, Afro-Cuban, the blues, and reggae, reflecting their diverse backgrounds. The quartet is currently celebrating the release of "Conversance," the first-ever jazz release for Chicago's longest-running indie rock label, Pravda Records.
