Arrive features Aram Shelton on alto saxophone, Jason Adasiewicz on vibraphone, Jason Roebke on bass and Tim Daisy on drums. Arrive has been performing together since the winter of 2001, when the music for the debut self-titled album was written by Shelton. It is influenced by the music of John Tchichai, Steve Lacy and Ornette Coleman. It was recorded by Devin Davis at Acme Recording in Chicago in 2001 and released in 2005 by 482 Music as part of their Document Chicago series.

In the summer of 2008 they toured the Eastern US and Canada. An album recorded directly after this tour is set to be released by Polish Imprint MultiKulti in 2009.

Shelton advances a postbop to free vocabulary anchored in the past that also draws on the present and expectantly eyeballs the future. The basic elements will be familiar to any student of the 60s New Thing, but Shelton and his band aren’t about rote regurgitation.
Derek Taylor, Dusted.com

if Arrive is any indication, not only are the next generation of intrepid Chicago improvisers forging their own direction, Shelton has arrived as a composer of some significance.
John Kelman, All About Jazz

Remarkably gentle and economical, like a Lee Konitz solo manifest, Arrive is pure and deliberate. Some of the glacially slow movement of composer Morton Feldman creeps in here and there, but the energy of the Chicago players...never flags. Shelton's sax owes much to Ornette Coleman, whose soulful-sweet alto tone Shelton has adopted in faithful homage.
Matthew Lurie, TimeOut Chicago

Jason Adasiewicz www.jasonadasiewicz.com
A prolific and visible member of Chicago's jazz and improvised music scene, Jason Adasiewicz is quickly gaining widespread recognition from his extensive work as a sideman as well as such high-profile honors as his strong showing in the Rising Star Vibes category of DownBeat's 2007 Critics' Poll. Critics have called him "a remarkably adroit colorist" (Jay Collins, Cadence) and "a welcome new voice" (Chris Kelsey, JazzTimes), noting his "probing sound" (Michael McCaw, AllAboutJazz.com) and ability "to create cunning and subtle rhythmic suspensions" (Derek Taylor, Dusted). Adasiewicz is a member of more than 20 working bands, including Rob Mazurek's Exploding Star Orchestra, the Nicole Mitchell Quartet, the Guillermo Gregorio Trio, and Ken Vandermark's Index Orkest.

Jason Roebke. www.jasonroebke.info
The diversity of Jason Roebke’s musical associations make him one of the most sought after bassists in Chicago. His playing is intensely physical, audacious, and sparse. He leads the electro-acoustic ensemble tigersmilk (Rob Mazurek, Dylan van der Schyff), co-leads the modular music and dance unit Art Union Humanscape (Ayako Kato, Tim Barnes, Michiyo Yagi), and the brutal post-drone trio overova (Fred Lonberg-Holm, Jason Adasiewicz). Roebke is also a member of various jazz bands including the Jeb Bishop Trio, Fred Lonberg-Holm Valentine Trio, Klang, Keefe Jackson Quartet, Mike Reed's People, Places, and Things, Jorrit Dijkstra’s Flatlands Collective, Jason Stein's Locksmith Isidore, and Jason Adasiewicz's Rolldown.

Tim Daisy. www.timdaisy.com
Tim has been an avid member of Chicago's thriving music scene since moving there in 1997 and has performed, recorded, and written music for many of the city's creative ensembles. In 2001, Tim joined the Vandermark 5 and has since recorded four albums, a box set of music recorded live in Poland, and a double LP to come out soon on the Polish "Not Two" label. The Vandermark 5 continues to tour and record extensively as it enters its 11th year as an ensemble in 2007—something not seen very often in the world of improvised music. Tim leads two groups of his own: Festival Quartet and Sky and Lights. Each group explores the relationship between thematic material and improvisation with the members of the groups defining the overall character of the music through their respective personalities. Other groups that Tim currently works with are: The Engines (with Jeb Bishop, Dave Rempis, and Nate McBride), The Rempis Percussion Quartet (with Dave Rempis, Anton Hatwich, and Frank Rosaly), Dragons 1976 (with Aram Shelton and Jason Ajemian), Abranchadaisian (with Jaimie Branch and Jason Ajemian), Klang (with James Falzone, Jason Adasiewicz, and Jason Roebke), Kyle Bruckmann's WRACK (with Jason Stein, Jenn Claire Paulson, and Anton Hatwich), and the Frame Quartet (with Ken Vandermark, Fred Lonberg-Holm, cello and Nate McBride).
