about

Following the global success of The Chicago Experiment, the long awaited fourth in The Experiment Series, Greg Spero brings us 8 unreleased tracks from the original sessions. While the sound is instantly recognizable, The Chicago Experiment: Revisited expands on the original in a flowing and explorative way.

These tracks represent an expansion on the original Chicago Experiment concept, bringing in more long-form compositions, drawing from our early Chicago roots. So much has evolved in Chicago music to bring us to the innovative urban-rooted beat-oriented idiom we play with today. In this record, I'm reaching back to pull in influences from our early days, playing at Von Freeman's jam session, the Green Mill late nights, and our long-form creative improvisations at the Velvet Lounge. (Greg Spero)

Revisited is not a group of bonus tracks assembled for commercial sale; it is a cohesive and deeper look into the artistry of the players and their relationship to one another. One gets the feeling of being present in a dimly lit studio after hours, when the real talk comes out.

The Chicago Experiment: Revisited will be released one track at a time beginning today. Once complete, the entire album will be available in multiple formats.
