The rotating cast of players, while maintaining the more compact scale introduced on the band’s last album, the Grammy-nominated PRESENCE, also features first-time members alongside veterans that joined the ranks in its earliest days and special guests whose collaborations with Evans stretch back over many years.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003eFrom trumpeter Sean Jones, with whom Evans has played for well over a decade, and Eric Revis to bassist Dylan Reis, a young bass protégé, to bandmates making strides in the jazz scene after being nurtured by Evans early in their career in Philly and beyond – drummers Anwar Marshall and Mark Whitfield Jr., saxophonists Immanuel Wilkins, Troy Roberts and Caleb Wheeler Curtis, and bassist Luques Curtis, among others speak with a loud, unified and infectious voice throughout. It is a unity that has led the ensemble a Grammy nomination and elevated its status to one of the most thrilling and revered ensembles in modern jazz.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003eThe title, according to Evans, refers to an elusive decision point, that sense of stepping off a ledge into the unknown that comes with taking risks and setting a new course.m“This record is just about going for it, taking those projects you’ve been dreaming about and just making them happen,” he says. “The industry constantly tells you to wait, but for how long?
