"On New Year's Eve of 2018, in a remote small town in Germany, Papi Fimbres confessed to always yearning to be in a "Jazz Band" since the beginning of time. That gorgeously chilly evening echoed the resolution in the forest & the following day, hung over, he emailed Sam Adams (Keys / Sama Dams), Jenny Logan (Bass / DeathList) & Nicole McCabe (Tenor & Soprano Sax / Martha Stax) asking if they would be interested in forming a new band under the moniker PUNGENT. Upon returning to Portland, OR., the quartet got together for the very first time on April 22nd & with some vague ideas of Jazz influences thrown at each other, they molded & sculpted their interpretation of what Jazz means to them. Culling inspiration from John Coltrane, Sun Ra, Miles Davis & Sonny Sharrock, this is the new sound from Portland's PUNGENT." (Promo Copy)
