Jack Bowers/AllAboutJazz: "...Red Beats is a swinging album deftly performed by drummer Steve Fidyk's fashionably named Live Wire Broad Band… The album itself consists of nine of Fidyk's multi-layered and high-powered compositions. Trumpeter Tim Leahey, leads the parade ... and is superb, as is veteran tenor saxophonist ... Walt Weiskopf."
Fidyk: has been active since 1991; released ~15 albums with the U.S. Army Blues; ~6 releases of his own; has lotsa studio and big band experience; is a prominent music educator. Steve’s Bandcamp ; Discogs.
