The Out To Lunch Quintet Live at the Artists' Quarter
The Out To Lunch Quintet (OTLQ) was formed to perform the music of the late, great Eric Dolphy. Although originally organized for a single concert event in early 2006, the significance of keeping this music alive, coupled with popular demand to hear Dolphy’s tunes, has kept OTLQ going. Although all of these musicians have worked together in different ensembles, Live at the Artists' Quarter is their first recording as the Out to Lunch Quintet.

The Out To Lunch Quintet features top musicians: Dave Milne, an accomplished and versatile performer and composer, plays alto saxophone, bass clarinet, and flute. Free jazz trumpeter Kelly Rossum penned the only song on the CD not written by Dolphy. Vibraphone virtuoso Dave Hagedorn, an Artist in Residence at St. Olaf College in Northfield, Minnesota, has toured and recorded with George Russell. Bassist Tom Lewis is known for his lyrical solos and musical versatility. Drummer Phil Hey studied with Ed Blackwell and toured with Dewey Redman for over 20 years.
