Fred Gombo - Guitar • El Mono - Bass • John Smallberries - Drums • Lorne Montague - Keyboards

The most important figures of Namodriew, Saskatchewan's avant garde music scene have put together something their peers have been afraid to do for years: a jazz album. Marvel at the masters as they take you on a journey the likes of which has never been taken. Fred Gombo and John Smallberries have dreamed for years of assembling a jazz quartet, and have finally done so. They have assembled a stellar team, and the results are a rare treat for the ears. The only weak spot on the album is the pop radio sell-out track which the label chose as the album's title track.
BIO
Fred and John - backbone of the group, best known and loved for their work with The Sex Socks.
Lorne Montague's expert bass playing really lends an element of professionalism to the FQG atmosphere.
El Mono brings a latin flavour to the group with his Central American heritage infuencing his keyboard style.
