Members: David Tamura, Robert Pepper
THE JAZZFAKERS quartet emerged from the New York music scene in 2008. The idea originated from saxophonist/keyboardist David Tamura who runs the New York City Experimental Music Meet-Ups. During this time, he teamed up with drummer Steve Orbach, and multi-instrumentalist Robert L. Pepper of avant garde experimentalists PAS, later to add bassist Isaac Taylor to complete the project. The group incorporates various forms of music including jazz, avant garde, noise, improv, and minimalism, along with a few mainstream hooks, to develop a new cutting edge sound which can only be described as "beautifully schizophrenic and original".
