One of the most prominent drummers on the Canadian jazz scene—and a notable member of Oliver Jones’ crew—Jim Doxas has forged a reputation as a peerless improviser. Pushing jazz beyond its usual limits, he ably illustrates that a drumstick is just as powerful as strings or horns when it comes to making music… After heading the Festival Jam Sessionsin 2013, he invites pianist Paul Shrofel and double bassist Morgan Moore to join him in presenting a new album—his first as a bandleader!—in L’Astral.
