Post Description

The inaugural album by the Jazz super-group, Spirit Fingers, features 
4 of the hottest young lions on the Jazz scene today. Having played 
to sold out audiences from New York to LA and having already attracted 
over 300,000 views on YouTube, the over-the-top energy and spectacular 
virtuosity of Spirit Fingers reaches across the spectrum, from the Jazz 
aficionado to the jam band audience and beyond. “A thrilling soundscape… 
Explosive… riveting… a glorious genre-bending excursion of free-wheeling groove”.
–- TheJazzWorld

Spero’s ambition is powerfully manifested in his new band SPIRIT FINGERS (formerly known 
as Polyrhythmic), a dynamic ensemble of uber-talented young musicians whose energy, 
passion and innovative approach stake out exciting new territory for exploratory music 
on their eponymous debut album out in March 2018 on Shanachie Entertainment. 
As a pianist, and bandleader, Spero has explored various genres including jazz, hip-hop, 
modern classical music and pop, he exhibits the tenacious pursuit and commitment to 
excellence that separate the journeymen from the pioneers. The 12-song disc showcases 
Spero leading his superb ensemble that includes guitarist Dario Chiazzolino, bassist 
Hadrien Feraud and drummer Mike Mitchell as they concoct exploratory and evocative 
soundscapes that often combine the muscular virtuosity and rhythmic intricacies 
associated with the best of ’70s jazz fusion (think George Duke, Mahavishnu Orchestra, 
Return to Forever, and Weather Report) with some of today’s pop and hip-hop sensibilities.

Spirit Fingers is pianist Greg Spero (winner of Best Jazz Entertainer 
at the Chicago Music Awards, music director for electropop superstar Halsey), 
Parisian bassist Hadrien Feraud (John McLaughlin, Kamasi Washington, Chick Corea), 
Dallas drum prodigy Mike Mitchell (Stanley Clark, Christian McBride, Chrisette 
Michelle) and Italian guitarist Dario Chiazzolino (Dave Liebman, Buika, Taylor Eigsti).
