BOSS TENORS is a dynamic quartet channeling the timeless spirit of classic 1960s two-tenor albums. Led by tenor saxophonists Ted Dortch and Cliff Colon, the ensemble, accompanied by Joe Doria on Hammond B3 organ and Max Holmberg on drums, pays homage to legends like Eddie Lockjaw Davis, Johnny Griffin, Sonny Stitt, Sonny Rollins, and Gene Amons. Embracing the blues, soulful melodies, and high-energy swing, BOSS TENORS revives the essence of a bygone era. With a nod to the iconic 1961 "Boss Tenors" album by Sonny Stitt & Gene Amons, their music is a powerful fusion of tradition and innovation, transporting audiences to the golden age of jazz with every soul-stirring note.

“Swingin' SO hard! All of you sound great. The tenor masters are smiling down on you big time!” - Dr. David Joyner
