Keyboardist/composer/producer Jeff Lorber, heralded as "one of the founding fathers of fusion" (Keyboard), returns with his Grammy nominated power trio the Jeff Lorber Fusion, featuring bassist/co-producer Jimmy Haslip and saxophonist Eric Marienthal. 'Hacienda' also features violinist Jean-Luc Ponty and drummers Vinnie Colaiuta and Dave Weckl.

Since the late 1970s, this jazz fusion collective has blended elements of jazz, funk, rock, R&B and world music into a distinctive sound that has connected with audiences from a variety of continents, cultures and generations.

'Hacienda' includes ten original compositions and a brilliant take on the Frank Zappa composition "King Kong", with Jean-Luc Ponty on violin. Other guests include Larry Koonse, Paul Jackson, Jr., Vinnie Colaiuta, Dave Weckl, Lenny Castro, David Mann, and more.
