Birth got their start here in Cleveland in 1999, but after many years of performing, recording, and developing their sound into an expansive musical language that was well received here in Northeast Ohio the band went on a long hiatus.

When they reunited a few years ago, they found their music has evolved from youthful, unrestrained, often "sensationalized" displays of prodigious outbursts on their instruments, to a hybrid of powerful, yet highly sensitive improvisation and composition.

A favorite of Cleveland jazz writer and folk icon Harvey Pekar, their music lead Harvey to proclaim that birth was "So good that it's scary."

You be the judge. Featuring Jeremy Bleich on bass, Joe Tomino on drums and Joshua Smith on Saxophones, and from a June 12th, 2022 performance – it’s Birth – Live at the Bop Stop.

All music used with permission by The Black Whole.

Through an eclectic assemblage of touring collaborators and kinfolk, “The Black Whole” seamlessly reconnects jazz to its freer ancestral roots, while consciously and simultaneously working to uproot it through diverse sonic exchanges, instrumental interplay, and contemporary juxtapositions.

Pianist and composer Walter Kemp III set out to explore this concept, pushing the boundaries of sound, and bringing with it a sense of cosmic freewheeling along with the other members of the quintet.

Featuring Walter Kemp III on piano, Grammy Award winner Scott Tixier on violin, Brent Birckhead on wind instruments, Rishon Odel on bass and Allan Mednard on drums, from a June 23rd, 2022 performance, it’s Black Whole – Live at the Bop Stop.
