“An intriguing effort that lovers of experimental world jazz shouldn’t overlook.”AllMusic

Fusing Celtic, jazz, and Afro-Latin influences, supergroup The Auction Project—led by Grammy-Award winning pianist and composer Arturo O’Farrill and alto saxophonist and composer David Bixler—create a surprising, richly textured, and thoroughly enjoyable sound.
