You probably don't like jazz. Most people don't like jazz. But most people haven't heard of The Bad Plus either. The Bad Plus is a modern jazz trio. Since 1990, the three with their musical talent have done a successful job of mixing jazz and rock. This fusion attracts many listeners who would not normally be 'jazz people'. However, The Bad Plus is not necesarily easy listening. After all, they are modern jazz and they frequently will stretch your ear.

They play many different songs from ballads:

To latin style:

What makes The Bad Plus different is that they have fun with what they do and express themselves. The music they produce stands out with emotion and energy.

The majority of their videos on youtube are live. They do a fantastic live set and I encourage anyone who hasn't been to a show to go see one.

They also do covers of many well-known bands.

Radiohead:

Black Sabbath:
+ Show Spoiler +




Aphex Twin:

I'm not trying to advertise this band at all. My goal is to have somebody stretch his music tastes. The bass player Reid Anderson says "If people don't like our music, that's perfectly legitimate." So listen to a few tracks and try something new.

There are tons of great songs that The Bad Plus produces. Some of their best songs aren't on youtube however. However my personal favorite is on youtube so I'll leave with this:

I listen to EST a lot, they are one of my favorites in jazz, but I prefer Avishai Cohen. I never really started to like Brad Mehldau, but I don't think any of his music bad, just not particularly interesting for my taste.
