Medeski / Martin / Wood
Let's Go Everywhere
( CD )
Little Monster Records

When John Medeski, Chris Wood, and Billy Martin go into the studio to record any new album, they’re never sure what will emerge. It was no different when the trio gathered in an upstate New York studio last year with a few concepts, a few musical ideas, and a few friends to create Let’s Go Everywhere, their first recording designed to please their youngest fans. In the perfect party song, the band gets into a funky groove that stops suddenly, prompting enthusiastic young voices to shout, “Where’s the music?” and the music to start up again. As the party continues, the trio brings in other friends to add to the musical journey. All three members see Let’s Go Everywhere as an opportunity to play music they like without talking down to kids. Martin calls this album “one of my favorite records … one of the best we’ve ever done,” and says it brought the band members closer than ever.
