Anyone here heard of this jazz piano trio?

A lot of modern jazz gives me brain-strain, but I recorded a Bad Plus gig from the radio last night and was surprised, pleased and thoroughly hooked. To my ears they are kind of an ironic, post-modern "Gene Harris and the Three Sounds", if that makes any sense. They have some great original compositions and some interesting & fun interpretations of pop, rock and techno tunes (provided you're familiar with the originals).

Hmmm...

Won't play for me. I wonder if it's my firewall. Anyway, thanks for the tip, David. I'll probably pick up their CD next opportunity.
