Four Piece Suit have been creating their quirky brand of eclectic instrumental music since 1995. They are best known for their soundtrack work on HBO's Sex and the City TV series. Based on the huge Tenor sax sound of David Sholl and the twangy guitar of Milt Reder, the band has made forays into wide ranging musical territories, including Spaghetti Westerns, Bollywood, Battitsta Era Mambos and Cha Chas, Rube Goldberg cartoon themes, Crime Jazz, Tangos by way of surfing Scandinavians, even their own demented version of Klezmer. Their rhythm section of Bassist Dean Cassell, paired with a series of great drummers:Davey Roy Kulik, Lorne Entress, Craig McIntyre, and the masterful David Mattacks (Richard Thompson, XTC, Paul McCartney), now adding in Eguie Castrillo (of the Arturo Sandoval band) on percussion, provides a percolating pulse that brings all these themes to life.

When you're in the mood for instrumental rock and don't want to think hard enough or be bothered with vocals getting in the way, Four Piece Suit serves up some extremely innovative rock. Mixing up hybrids and pure-breeds of Latin, surf rock, jazz, blues, R&B, jam band and Indian-influenced world fusion rock to funky, tempermental sax rock to something reggae and island-breezy, Spirito won't lull you into mediocrity and yet, at the same time, it has no trouble finding its home groove. If you find yourself recognizing the sounds, it's not your imagination- they're best known for hits on "Sex and the City,"
