This very tight band really stokes my jones for
the Fender Rhodes.
Trio Jazz filtered through a post-Fusion sensibility, the writing
is
attractive, with plenty of respect for the tonal color of the Rhodes,
and a healthy feel for texture and
space.

Jazz Times
Pat Daugherty, who leads the trio New York Electric Piano,
knows
how to unleash all aspects of the Fender Rhodes. Together
with drummer
Aaron Comess and bassist Tim
Givens they can explore everything
from badass funk (Miles Glorioso)
to walking blues (Blues for Curley)
and bebop (Hot Springs).

There is a lot to discover. the
focus of the music is on the interplay between
the musicians and the range of
dynamics that they create. Comess and
Givens lay down simmering, bouncy grooves. Daugherty is an
economical
and very expressive soloist. The acoustic
piano takes you on a ride with the
funk of "Democrazy".
NYEP has been hoggin' disc space in my CD
player...
and that's a good thing.

"It
grooves. It moves. its tubular man! We played
"Space Travel." It's
like
Booker T & The MG's, Phillip K. Dick and Medeski Martin &
Wood
cloning. NYEP is all a jam, ham and eggs, Dr. Zues,
I Am, band.
So be prepared to jump for joy when they play in your
neighborhood"
