Celebrating their 25th anniversary, Charged Particles features three of the country's jazz virtuosos, crossing stylistic boundaries and blending diverse traditions to create engaging new sounds.
Murray Low is a keyboard wizard with dazzling Latin-jazz technique and imaginative improvisational skills. Aaron Germain is an inventive and sophisticated acoustic and electric bassist. With fiery drummer Jon Krosnick, these players are making some of the most electrifying jazz in the country today.
The trio's repertoire blends jazz with elements of Latin music, funk, classical music, and other genres, with a distinctly acoustic sensibility, despite the members playing both electric and acoustic instruments.
In addition to their own headline performances, Charged Particles has opened for artists such as Stanley Jordan, Yanni, and Al DiMeola, and mega-star drummers Peter Erskine and Dennis Chambers and percussionist Doc Gibbs have sat in with them.
