Background:

The Gary Lefebvre/Joe Marillo Quintet features two legends of the San Diego jazz scene. Lefebvre has played with many heavy cats, including Chet Baker, Shelly Manne, Leroy Vinnegar, and Shorty Rogers. Joe Marillo helped kickstart the local jazz scene, working at the Catamaran Hotel, Chuck's Steakhouse, and other venues, with many then-young local jazz musicians, like Peter Sprague and Rob Schneiderman.

The ensemble also includes Dave Kinkaid on piano, Tom Azarello on bass, and Bob Daniels on drums.
