They debuted in 2006 with "Ways Not To Lose" on Blue Note Records. Since then, they have consistently released albums, and their fifth album, "The Muse," produced by Buddy Rich in 2013, received critical acclaim. Their next album, "Paradise," in 2015, reached number one on the Heatseekers chart. In 2018, "One Drop of Truth" was nominated for a Grammy.
