With rare virtue, thought, and imagination these multi-faceted and experienced musicians have collaborated to create their own unique personal expression, original sound, and trademark in jazz music.
Compositions and performances of Airborne contain: Moods of romance, inner spirit, peace, fun, and excitement. Grooves that move soft, smooth, and wild. Hot rhythms that cruise on a cool sea of music and voices. A trademark jazz sound of island passion and urban emotion.
Music that is sensitive, straight from the heart and echo's from deep within the soul. A whirling musical journey packed with sincerity and flawless execution.
