About Forq
Forq is an instrumental quartet with a dynamic sound and a penchant for sonic
exploration. The group is composed of world-class improvisers, but it is their
unusually memorable, genre-blending songs that leave the most lasting
impression. Seven of these songs make up their third album Thrēq (pronounced
“threek”), which was released in late 2017. Originally founded by
keyboardist Henry Hey (David Bowie, Empire of the Sun, Jeff "Tain" Watts) and
bassist Michael League (Grammy-winning leader of Snarky Puppy), Forq is now
joined by guitarist Chris McQueen (Snarky Puppy, Bokanté), drummer Jason
"JT" Thomas (Roy Hargrove’s RH Factor, Marcus Miller, D’Angelo) and
bassist Kevin Scott (Wayne Krantz, Jimmy Herring, Col. Bruce Hampton). They
have toured across the US and Europe and performed at international festivals
including the North Sea Jazz festival and GroundUP Festival in Miami Beach.
