"An appealing new voice on the jazz scene with beautiful melodic sensitivity and intricately crafted percussion”

-Marshall Smith, The Idyllwild Town Crier, CA

"Frisson is​ ​an​ ​eight​ ​piece​ ​instrumental​ ​collective​ ​formed​ ​in​ 2015​ ​at​ ​the​ ​Oberlin Conservatory​ ​of​ ​Music and led by composer and vibraphonist Matt DiBiase. Comprised​ ​of​ ​graduates​ ​and​ ​current​ ​students​ ​of​ ​Oberlin,​ ​the​ ​Juilliard School,​ the ​Berklee​ ​Global​ ​Jazz​ ​Institute​ ​and​ ​the​ ​Brubeck​ ​Institute,​ ​its​ members​ ​currently​ ​reside throughout​ ​the​ ​United​ ​States,​ ​the​ Bahamas​ ​and​ ​Germany.​ With​ ​influences​ ​ranging​ ​from​ ​jazz​ ​and hip​ ​hop​ ​to​ ​funk​ ​and​ ​electronic​ ​music,​ ​the​ ​band's​ ​live​ ​performances​ feature​ ​hypnotic​ ​grooves, exhilarating​ ​solos​ ​and​ ​thoughtfully​ crafted​ ​original​ ​compositions.​ ​

The​ ​group's​ ​sound​ ​reflects many​ ​of​ ​today’s​ ​preeminent​ ​genre-crossing​ ​artists​ ​including​ ​Snarky​ ​Puppy,​ ​Hiatus​ Kaiyote,​ ​the Christian​ ​Scott​ ​Quintet​ ​and​ ​Moonchild. Frisson released its debut EP in 2017 and has since toured the material across the United States West Coast, Midwest and Western Canada. In June of 2019 they will release their second studio album, Cast, and tour extensively throughout the country."
