Sixteen years in and the genre-bending electric jazz collective Kneebody are stronger than ever. On the heels of their recent groundbreaking collaboration with electronic musician Daedelus, the band returned to the studio refreshed and armed with a slate of road-tested tunes for their ninth studio album. Kneebody makes their Motéma Music debut with the release of Anti-Hero, the pulsating result of that creative rebirth, featuring an assured set of churning backbeats and unrestrained exploration. Kneebody are trumpeter Shane Endsley, saxophonist Ben Wendel, keyboardist Adam Benjamin, bassist Kaveh Rastegar and drummer Nate Wood. These five artists, all bandleaders in their own right, have become first-call musicians not only for their jazz contemporaries but also for mainstream icons such as John Legend, De La Soul, Snoop Dogg and Pearl Jam to name a few. Throughout the years, however, Kneebody has always remained their artistic home. It is the goal of the band to not be confined to any genre. Although they exist in an instrumental jazz world, their influences and abilities cover an enormous swath of genres from chamber pop to hard-driving electronic-based productions.
