These guys are absolutely amazing! I had to get home, but I heard them and said "screw it!". They are extremely talented in every definition of the word, and very entertaining. There wasn't a second that I wasn't impressed by their talent in their respected instruments, I couldn't stop myself from mentally jamming out with them. You can tell they're very passionate about their music and deserve all the listeners that can fit into that coffee house. Their music, in a sense entranced me. I would love to bring my friends to hear them, and I definitely will! I plan on seeing them again, as they play every 2nd 4th Wednesday at the Coffee Ethic!
My husband and I have heard this class-act group numerous times at The Coffee Ethic down on the square. Not only are they wonderfully talented musicians, they always take the time to interact appropriately with the audience, and greet members of the crowd during their breaks. We highly recommend listening to this group of musicians do what they do best!

The FourFront Quartet
FourFront is a jazz quartet playing compositions from the great jazz masters, from those not yet well known and even some original compositions from within the band. They are also known as an interactive quartet, allowing the musicians to communicate and respond to each other and the audience. FourFront is especially interested in communicating with their audience, knowing full well that listeners of live music love to hear their favorite songs of any style, but especially, "Recognizable Musical Standards." They offer a salad plate of musical styles, which includes Jazz, Latin, R&B, Funk and 1940s style Big Band hits for dances, wedding receptions, corporate functions or anywhere good music is needed.
The band’s personnel come from a variety of college and professional music backgrounds. Because of this, FourFront has an imaginative approach to the jazz music catalog, while using the sound of the traditional jazz quartet. A Tenor Sax, the variation of a Guitar in place of the piano, along with the foundational Bass and Drums, produce a thrilling and appealing sound.
With this instrumentation there are more choices to determine how to best arrange these jazz standards and original compositions, keeping the listener truly engaged with these instrumental sounds, instead of the more commonly heard single instrument sound.
FourFront personnel:
Dennis Winkle; Leader, Drums and Percussion
Matt Harp; Guitar, Electric Guitar
Lane Waggoner, Tenor Sax, Clarinet
Sam Atkins; Electric Bass
