The HSQ is a Detroit-based jazz quintet that performs music with purpose. The group is spearheaded by Saxophonist James Hughes & trumpeter Jimmy Smith and features the rhythm section of Phil Kelly on piano, Takashi Iio on bass and Nate Winn on drums. The quintet formed in the autumn of 2012 with the purpose of promoting their brand of Detroit be-bop. Fresh tunes, intricate arrangements, tight ensemble work, intriguing solos and music that swings are among the groups trademarks.
