San Francisco's Soul Jazz ensemble, Times 4, paints a musical narrative of shared history with their fourth album "Frame of Mind." This vibrant fusion of modern grooves and elevating jazz improvisations showcases original compositions collaboratively crafted for this project. The album brings forth live in-studio performances brimming with energy, potent melodies, and dynamic solos.

With two decades of camaraderie shaping their distinctive Soul Jazz signature, Times 4's quartet generates tight, propulsive rhythms, entrancing tunes, and dynamic extemporizations that prompt audiences to groove and feel the music in their very bones, from the analytical to the carefree.

The lineup comprises Lincoln Adler (saxophones), Greg Sankovich (keyboards), Kevin Lofton (bass), and Maurice Miles (drums), each engaging in an artful, impassioned musical dialogue born from enduring friendships and intertwined roots. Miles and Lofton's alliance traces back to high school, mirroring the longstanding musical conversation between Adler and Sankovich, originating in their teenage years.
