Just wanted to shine a light on a phenomenal record that deserves attention! Especially for anyone into instrumental music with real musicianship, groove, and soul. The band is a Little Rock-based quartet that’s been honing their sound since 2015, and their debut vinyl, Stellar Wayz, just dropped. It’s a fusion-heavy instrumental journey that blends jazz, rock, funk, and blues with precision and heart. Comparable and similar to dazzling progressive jam.
Tyndall Jackson on guitar brings a soaring, lyrical voice — almost vocal in its phrasing — layered over deep harmonic pockets
Bob “Frisbee” Coleman on keys adds that extra dimension: Rhodes textures, moody synths, and jazz-rooted comping that expands every track.
Jared Vargas on bass holds it all down with fat, tasteful low end and melodic interplay.
And Cliff “Drummerboy” Aaron? His drumming is both explosive and restrained — the kind of feel you can’t fake.
Stellar Wayz feels like an album made with intention. You can hear the live energy, but also the years of chemistry — like a band that’s done the woodshedding, the gigs, the jams, and finally decided to put their stamp on wax.
I suggest to start with Majestic Princess! But thats my personal opinion of course. Thats also the beauty of it, there is variety! I promise there is something on this album for everyone.
Give it a listen on:

Welcome to Progarchives, Shelby. It might help draw our collaborators' attention to the suggestion if there was a sub genre mentioned in the topic title, though the term super-quartet does imply that jazz-related music of some kind might be involved here.
As well as via Spotify and Reverbnation, the full album (followed by three other tracks) can also be heard using this https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLY8E90Div5AUzMIEWWcJ7_QrDKz_B4ROP" rel="nofollow - YouTube playlist on Tyndall Jackson's channel.
If no team picks this up within the next three days, I'll forward it to the Jazz-Rock/Fusion team for evaluation.
