Taye Drums announced today that Taye Endorser Jim Payne and his Band are in the studio recording their new CD for Savant Records. The new CD, entitled 'Énergie, is expected to be released March 2005, and features his current funk-based organ trio once again exploring the musical spectrum from vintage soul jazz to electrified P-Funk grooves with all-new original material. The Jim Payne Band regular members include Bill Bickford (guitar) and Jerry Z (organ); 'Énergie will also feature two guest artists - renowned Jazz musicians John Scofield (guitar) and Mike Clark (drums). JazzTimes magazine, in reviewing the Jim Payne Bands current CD 'Sensei for their May 2004 issue, stated Drummer Jim Paynes album, 'Sensei, shows him to be the Billy Cobham or perhaps the Buddy Rich of funk drumming-his playing is crisp, precise, and technically impeccable. The tunes are slinky, quasi-New Orleans funk, mysterioso funk, hard driving, down-home funk and ballad funk. ...Payne is a model drummer and the group really has its act together."

Im proud to be a Taye Drums Endorser, and to be associated with Ray Ayotte and the entire Taye family," says Jim. My Taye drums give me back exactly what I put into them, from a whisper to a roar and everything in between. They sound incredible, and work well for me in every musical situation, both live and in the studio."
We are particularly pleased to have someone of the caliber of Jim Payne endorse our drums," states Ray Ayotte, Taye president. Jim is a highly respected drummer, author, bandleader, and clinician, and we are proud to have him playing Taye Drums both in the studio and on tour." Jim is also one of several top drummers featured in the new Taye StudioMaple 'The Most Important Thing ad campaign.
