Toronto saxophonist and composer Harrison Argatoff has launched a new quartet, Valley Voice, whose debut album Stars, Engines arrives October 10 on Elastic Recordings. The group - featuring vibraphonist Michael Davidson, bassist Dan Fortin, and drummer Ian Wright - embodies more than just a meeting of accomplished Canadian jazz musicians.
