In just a few weeks Tulsa's jazz fusion icon Jacob Fred Jazz Odyssey will hit the road again for a two-month album release tour celebrating it's 20th record, "Stay Gold."
The tour will take JFJO from New Orleans to Louisville to Seattle to Los Angeles, and end with a blow-out New Year's Eve show in their hometown, at Cain's Ballroom.
The Virginian Pilot said of "Stay Gold": the band creates "romantic melodies, rock breakdowns, and impressionistic jazz" while There Stands the Glass says that "...the cinematic scope of the instrumental album, flavored with haunting lap steel, is as vast as the Oklahoma prairie."
