Formed officially in the spring of 2007 and hailing from Upstate New York, the articulate music group FOOTNOTE has been making its move onto the Rochester music scene and beyond. This electrified contemporary jazz quartet composes and performs music in the spirit of the great modern jazz bands and artists, such as Larry Carlton, Acoustic Alchemy, George Benson, Pat Metheny, The Rippingtons, Steely Dan, and many more.

FOOTNOTE’s four talented musicians possess a very eclectic background that chronicles a wide variety of genres including rock, country, jazz, R &B, fusion, (traditional) progressive, and Motown.

FOOTNOTE embraces this diverse background and incorporates all these styles and influences as they compose, record, and perform their very own high energy sound. Their unique blend is also evident in their fresh perspectives and interpretations of cover material.

Although still young and having performed at numerous Upstate New York festivals, including The 2007 Rochester International Jazz Festival, FOOTNOTE has already established a solid base, upon which they are forging new territory in the true spirit of electrified contemporary jazz.

FOOTNOTE’s long anticipated CD debut titled “Common Ground” has just been released and is starting to surprise the contemporary jazz community and fans of great music with their very own unique and distinctive sound. MORE...
