just played a jam session with Mr. Wilson. Wow, can he play. His ride is feather soft yet still purposeful. Very melodic drummer indeed, and a warm guy as well.
Saw this cat (Wilson) in quartet with Julian Lage (g)and Jorge Roeder (b) and Doug Yates (ten)at Stanford Jazz Wkshops! Burned the house d o w n!! Cat is a baad mo fo!!
I got a clinic from Matt Wilson at the Jazz Port Townsend workshop this year, and Gary Versace was my combo instructor. Later, Arts & Crafts performed at the mainstage with Martin Wind on bass.
Matt Willson is only the coolest cat in the world, not only does play drums very very very well, but he also has a club foot (like me) which just makes him cooler.
P.S. to anyone who hasnt done the sway: do it, enjoy it, rinse and repeat.
I had the pleasure of opening for this group at the Bakersfield Jazz Fest. in May, 2007. I loved their set - it was (along with the Industrial Jazz Group) the highlight of my day. If you guys lurk here, keep up the creativity and hope to catch you guys again soon!

This is great stuff.
If someone said 'jazz sucks', they heard the wrong jazz.
