The new track mixes traditional jazz elements with pop hooks to create a genre-bending listening experience like no other. Fans can check out "Give What You Take" alongside a new video now below.
"With 'Give What You Take' I set out to create something that was really fun and catchy, but I was still trying to capture the high level of musicianship that makes jazz so great," says saxophonist Matthew Alec on the group's debut single. "To my ears, it turned out just right. I really hope both average music listeners and jazz fans dig this one."
