Quartets - T-Shirt

After years as a standout sideman for international acts like Lauryn Hill & the Fugees, Father John Misty, and ODESZA, Seattle-based saxophonist Peter Daniel takes center stage with his debut solo album, Quartets. Backed by a rotating cast of the Pacific Northwest’s finest rhythm sections, this ten-track collection is both a showcase of musical versatility and a love letter from the vibrant jazz and groove scene of the region.

Known for his contributions as a sideman to groups like The True Loves and The Polyrhythmics, Daniel now delivers his own voice—clear, confident, and brimming with energy. Quartets blends the raw power of funk, the sophistication of jazz, and the warmth of soul into a deeply personal, highly listenable journey. The title nods to the structure of the album: a series of quartets featuring different rhythm sections supporting Daniel’s original compositions.
