The confluence of these two traditions is expertly delivered by Coffin on saxophone,<\/span><b> Subrata Bhattacharya<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> on tabla, <\/span><b>Indrajit Banerjee<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> on sitar, fellow <\/span><b>Dave Matthews Band<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> band-mates <\/span><b>Carter Beauford<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> and <\/span><b>Stefan Lessard<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> on drums and bass, <\/span><b>Roy \u201cFutureman\u201d Wooten<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> and <\/span><b>Jordan Perlson<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> on percussion, <\/span><b>Chris Walters<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> on Piano, and <\/span><b>Ryoko Suzuki<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> on harmonium.\u00a0 Music In Our Dreams provides listeners with the rare opportunity to hear Coffin, Beauford and Lessard in a context very different than Dave Matthews Band, and to hear an ensemble of consummate musicians performing deeply evocative music.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The genesis of this album was a jam session held between Coffin and virtuosic indian classical musicians <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Subrata Bhattacharya and Indrajit Banerjee in Coffin\u2019s home studio in Nashville, TN.\u00a0 The musicians each brought in original compositions and taught the pieces to the others by ear.\u00a0 Coffin asked Bela Fleck and the Flecktones percussionist Roy \u201cFutureman\u201d Wooten and New Orleans-born pianist Chris Walters to join the ensemble in recording the final product. \u201cI\u2019ve been making music with both these guys for over 20 years and know they are adaptable and super open to challenging themselves.\u201d Coffin said of Wooten and Walters.\u00a0 Together with Coffin\u2019s Dave Matthews Band co-stars, friend Jordan Perlson on percussion, and wife Ryoko Suzuki providing harmonium, this album is bursting at the seams with raw, genuine talent.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The album kicks off with \u201c<\/span><b>Joy<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201d. Composed by Bhattacharya, this piece does a fantastic job of showcasing the musical facility of the entirety of the album\u2019s personnel.\u00a0 The track begins with a Gershwin-tinged piano intro from Walters which builds into a deeply infectious groove performed by the rhythm section.\u00a0 Referring to the piano intro, Coffin stated \u201c<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">He really has his own sound and touch on his instrument and I love the way we start the whole record with this.\u201d\u00a0 A section of the tune features Banerjee and Bhattacharya as a duo, paying homage to a more traditional orchestration before the full ensemble falls back into the tune\u2019s hallmark groove.\u00a0 The superb fills at the end of the track, performed by Coffin and Bhattacharya, go a long way in punctuating the vibe and the rhythm of the piece as a whole.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201c<\/span><b>Take it to the Bridge<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201d represents the perfect marriage between indian classical music and funk.\u00a0 This tune epitomizes the concept of the album as a whole, borrowing melodic and rhythmic concepts from the indian classical tradition while laying down a steady groove harkening back to the James Brown.\u00a0 Drummers Carter Beauford and Roy \u201cFutureman\u201d Wooten shine on this energetic, funk-fueled track with bassist Stefan Lessard laying down some fantastic lines throughout.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The performances of this dream band, made up of some of the finest musicians on the globe stemmed from a mutual interest in exploring the music of other cultures, and evolved into a testament to the universality of musical improvisation.\u00a0 Tabla player Subrata Bhattacharya states <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cThis project is a collage of music that has united the expressions and the amazing harmonic connection of our souls. It was a great experience for me during this whole journey of creating \u201cDream Shanti\u201d.
