Expect fo/mo/deep to be throwin' down cuts from their latest CD, Syzygy.

Seeking to defy the ordinary, this diverse collective of seasoned pros keeps things stirred up with unpredictable energy that moves. The music harkens back to the days when super groups hypnotized the world with bass driven ensembles and a full-bodied sound that reigned supreme. fo/mo/deep plays music like it’s meant to be…hot, incalculable and emotionally satisfying.

They released their most eclectic work yet, “The Groovy Goodness” on June 3rd, 2014. Brent Black of criticaljazz wrote “A release as deep and rich as the cover art, I’m hooked…” Robert Young of the Vertical Spin says “ Columbus, OH native composer/bassist Ron “FatKat” Holmes returns with his band fo/mo/deep to enhance their distinctive mark on another riveting contemporary jazz offering titled “The Groovy Goodness.”

Both “A Beautiful Bang” (June 2012) their sophomore release & their first release, “Eclecticism,” (August 2010) was received with rave reviews.

Tastefully varied but cohesively melded, the music lives in the moment.
