Kolaberate was formed in late 2005 as a new project to try and capture the style and energy of Coltrane's classic quartet, and feature the compositions of each member of the band.

The base of the group is the bass, drums, and sax trio, but the goal of the project is to discover new sounds and explore new modes of improvisation by expanding the group. In the past, we've been joined by Ken Tamura on guitar, and Fred Goetz, Ellen Lease, and Truth on keys.
