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, and has since developed their own distinct sound.

Their most recent album "There Was..." (Clean Feed) features six original compositions showing some of the countless capabilites of this quartet. It was recorded in the summer of 2008, immediately after a two week eastern US tour.

a fresh sound, sparked with bristling flurries and counterpoint maneuvers - JazzReview.com

the quartet puts together some fantastic arrangements with dizzying improvised moments in between - JazzWrap

I was impressed by how hot the band was, in the sense of, well, just tearing it up - Paul Acquaro

Arrive's second album was a live recording, captured in one night at Elastic Arts in Chicago. A works-in-progress document of some of the music that appears on the Clean Feed album "There Was..." The album also featured a new rendition of the track "All Dressed Up" from their debut.

Their debut self-titled album 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:

Shelton advances a postbop to free vocabulary anchored in the past that also draws on the present and expectantly eyeballs the future. - 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. - 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. - TimeOut Chicago

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. www.jasonadasiewicz.com

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. www.jasonroebke.info

Tim Daisy 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). www.timdaisy.com
