The iconic two-piece band concept conjures the picture of idealized rock rawness. But The Imposters — a staggeringly high-functioning duo who’ve collaborated with King Crimson’s Tony Levin, Zappa, Porcupine Tree, Stereolab and Natalie Merchant Band — shatter that image.

With the Chapman Stick and a sense of daring, The Imposters tap untold dimensions with improv-heavy excursions that push prog-rock to jazz heights.
