**In jazz’s heyday era of the heady 60s and early 70s, these cats were behind some
of the greatest releases of the genre, from Pharaoh Sanders’ Karma to Charles Lloyd’s
Forest Flower. **

Collectively they’ve performed and recorded with the likes of Art Blakey, Herbie
Hancock, and McCoy Tyner, Together they carry forth this legacy as The Cookers, 
one of the 21st century’s foremost supergroups. Cat’s Out The Bag is their first
album in 5 years and the first to be recorded at Van Gelder’s historic Englewood
Cliffs studio. Featuring all original compositions, the music embodies the name 
of this illustrious ensemble; hot, hard-hitting soul jazz, full of momentum and 
fire.
