An imaginative pianist and unique composer, Mike Holober is emerging as one of the freshest voices in jazz. His skills as a composer have been acknowledged by the receipt of the prestigeous MacDowell Fellowships in 2003 and 2004. International credits include a recent tour as guest composer, conductor and soloist with the world renowned Stockholm Jazz Orchestra. His compositions are regularly programmed by the BBC Big Band in London and the R.I.A.S. Big Band in Berlin. Quake is his first release on Sunnyside.
