CROSS-EFFECT

The remarkable saga of Cross-Effect spans over a 17 year period. As a trailblazing upstart as a talk show band during the cultural upheaval of the late 1990s, Cross-Effect has remained true to its legacy of freewheeling, risk-taking iconoclasm, transcending genre distinctions to consistently showcase music of quality and distinction. Cross-Effect has an ambitious goal. Their quest is to become “The Beatles of Jazz.” Having been together since January 1997, Cross-Effect has a style that is uniquely their-own, neo-soul/jazz. The ambitious goal and unique style that touches all formats of instrumental music, and propels them beyond the limits of a traditional jazz combo. Cross-Effect’s personnel has performed with Rick James, George Duke, Angela Winbush, Candy Dulfer, Chuck Mangione, James Moody, Bobby Shew, Bob Mintzer, Lew Tebackin, The Temptations and the Glenn Miller Orchestra.
