The Tiptones Saxophone Quartet is celebrating the release of our newest beautiful recording, Strange Flower. They perform original compositions and arrangements of world music on saxophones, clarinet, voices and percussion.  With concerts that cover musical territory from jazz, Afro-Cuban to Balkan, klezmer and beyond, the Tiptons create some of the most wild and joyous sounds ever to come out of a sax quartet.

Strange Flower is available through:
* Squidco (http://www.squidco.com/)
* Wayside Music (http://www.waysidemusic.com/Music-Products/Tiptons-Sax-Quartet—Strange-Flower__Zipa-spc-592.aspx) and
