Listeners can expect to be indulged in works from the blues, swing, and bebop eras of jazz as well as unique jazz-funk–fusion-infused tunes from chart-toppers, wedding-bangers, and basement-parties across the decades; all performed with inspiration and wisdom learned from studying the great tenor saxophone players like John Coltrane, Sam Rivers, Wayne Shorter, Sonny Rollins, Coleman Hawkins, and Stan Getz, to name a few. Some might say Zak’s musical approach is akin to “acid", or “nu-jazz.” These genres originated in clubs in London during the 1980s and combine elements of funk, pop, soul, and hip hop, as well as jazz and disco.
