nFuze
circa 2014 - circa 2017
2014-2017
(See Cooper Wolfe)
In 2014 several experienced and like-minded Vancouver Island musicians came together to create a new melodic jazz fusion conglomeration inspired by greats like Pat Metheny, Billy Cobham, Weather Report and Chick Corea.
nFuze was spearheaded by the energetically fierce drummer Andy Okell- a creative force to be reckoned with.
Bassist Sheldon Bordal brings a musical sensibility and pragmatism, grounding the mix with great tones.
At the melodic heart of the band are Dean Wolfe on guitar and Dee Cooper on keyboard. Both prolific writers of intriguing melodic compositions that honor jazz tradition while stretching its boundaries 'to infinity and beyond'.
The common thread for this quartet is the compulsion to perform live: exciting, inspiring and undeniably electrifying.
