Their rare recording thought to be lost, was presented live from the Hotel Utah in San Francisco. The group was specifically formed for this performance presented by the late great Dark Circle Lounge Series in the mid ninties. Now the band has reformed and is armed and dangerous with their first release, Out of Town, mixing free form noise, jazz, and grunge funk beats.

In the spirit of Bay Area artistic experimentation and exploration, THE LEFT COAST IMPROV GROUP (TLCIG) has crystalized from divergent musical and geographical backgrounds to form a unit of unprecedented talent. It's members are products of deep dedication, long study (both in and outside of academia), and many years of performance experience.
The emphasis of the group's approach is on relaxation, freedom, and listening, rather than individual virtuosity which, nevertheless, underlies the ensemble as an unfailing support for its cohesive expressiveness.
"TLCIG creates boldly cut, yet delightfully subtle, gems of spontaneous musical composition."
