O’s Notes: Cowboys and Frenchmen are a New York quintet featuring pianist Addison Frei, bassist Ethan O’Reilly, Ethan Helm (a-sax, fl), Owen Broder (a-sax, b-sax) and drummer Matt Honor. Helm composed all six selections for Our Highway, their third provocative jazz-fusion album. While challenging the norm, the music is totally accessible. This one was recorded live at SubCulture and is accompanied by a video that was transformational for the experience.
