FROM RUSS ANIXTER:
What is? A collection of my arrangements for Russ Anixter’s Hippie Big Band represents my love and background for big band jazz and rock groups that improvise. Smaller than a traditional big band, but bigger than a combo, we are a jazz band that plays rock music. Ok, we also can play straight ahead jazz, funk, pretty ballads and free form improvisations. Sometimes within the same arrangement.
