About:

“Led by Portland jazz artist on the rise, guitarist/vocalist Libby Roach, this group smartly blends '70s fusion, straight-ahead, and modern jazz styles with modern flourishes for a sound that's both retro and now.”
     > Kyle O'Brien, The Oregonian

“Libby’s exceptional composing skills coupled with her unique guitar playing style makes her band “Fractal” sound totally original. The African and Brazilian influenced rhythms are very accessible.”
     > Jerry Hahn

“I've long been a fan of Libby’s music! Her writing is refreshingly unique and the band always sound great. I love me some Fractal!!”
     > Damian Erskine



In Memoriam:

On November 4, 2009 fractal's drummer, Kipp Crawford, was killed in car-bicycle accident in northeast Portland. Kipp was a dear friend and a fantastic, creative musician who inspired all of us in his musical community. It has been extremely touching that so many people have reached out to us with their kind thoughts. Our hearts remain broken and our lives forever changed. To honor Kippp's passing, we have posted the two most recent recordings we have done together, "Summertime" and "Sideways". I know that he was proud of the way they turned out, and I hope that you will enjoy them.
