Editorial Reviews Sickafoose studied bass with Charlie Haden and composition with, among others, the late, great Mel Powell. The LA WEEKLY cited Sickafoose as an innovative orchestrator of abstractionist colorations . . . the melodies are strong, the rhythms sophisticated. The Weekly also identified Sickafoose as a hard-driving, technically indomitable bassist: at 24, hes already hard to ignore. (January 22-28, 1999) Band Members: Todd Sickafoose (bass/composer)
