about

On September 23, 2006, Brock and his long-time band, The Coffee Achievers, performed at the 2006 Tudo é Jazz Festival in Ouro Preto, Brazil, as part of an impressive roster of international jazz artists that included Dave Holland, Kurt Elling, Jason Moran, Kurt Rosenwinkel, and Toninho Horta. Playing all-original material from their 2005 release Chemistry, as well as material from their debut release, Zach Brock & The Coffee Achievers, the bi-coastal band was received with an enthusiastic ovation. Brock formed The Coffee Achievers in 2002 after meeting keyboardist Sam Barsh and bassist Matt Wigton at Betty Carter’s Jazz Ahead residency at the Kennedy Center. Their debut CD attracted major attention both in the jazz world and on the college scene. In April 2005, they were invited by Dave Douglas to perform as part of his small group residency at New York’s legendary Carnegie Hall.

about

One of the most virtuosic and emotive voices of contemporary jazz violin, Zach Brock has followed a path which embraces not ... more only jazz, but also classical, world, and popular music. His latest CD, The Magic Number, offers a telling glimpse of why Zach is being heralded as “the pre-eminent improvising violinist of his generation.” (Neil Tesser, Chicago Examiner) less

Track Name: This Is Just
This is not exactly what I had in mind
This is not according to my plan
This is not exactly what I meant to say at all
This is not a statement or a stand

This is just the way it happened and this is just...

This is not exactly what I meant to say
This is the result of your demand
This could be exactly what could bring this to an end
This has really gotten out of hand

This is just the way it happened and this is just...

Hold me in your arms and take me home again
We'll lose all our deception
Lose ourselves again
Just once more the words you tell me
Will be given time to stand

This is not exactly what I had in mind...
