about

Born from the restless vision of guitarist-composer Marcus Taylor, Kashgar weaves together jazz sensibilities, a classic rock edge and world influences to create an encompassing and innovative album. From dramatic Indian rhythmic passages that invoke the Mahavishnu Orchestra to fiery guitar-Hammond exchanges that would fit comfortably in the mainstream of progressive rock, Kashgar presents a refreshingly innovative take on the future of jazz-fusion.
