Brass boss hadn't yet played a note and the NAC Back Stage audience was already in the palm of his hand.
They are at the tail end of a gruelling North American tour but you wouldn't know it as this sax/bass/drum power trio basically peeled the paint off the rooms they played in Toronto.
Opening group lll人consisting of Paul Abbott (drums) Seymour Wright (alto saxophone) and Daichi Yoshikawa (electronics) unleashed a fiercely textural saw toothed assault on the Cafe Oto audience.
