david bixler trio incognito + Fabio Rojas Perseverance — live event

New York-based saxophonist, composer, and educator David Bixler continues his recent streak of creative reinvention with incognito ergo sum—the second release from his boundary-pushing trio with bassist Dan Loomis and drummer/percussionist Fabio Rojas, set for release on June 26th, 2025. A follow-up to their 2020 debut Inside the Grief—which responded powerfully to the overlapping crises of that year—this new album draws its energy from the trio’s earliest days, playing for parkgoers in pandemic-era New York. Born in a moment of global disruption, incognitoergo sum strips away stylistic borders in favor of shared human expression, drawing on bebop, free jazz, rock, and Venezuelan folk traditions to craft a sound that is both defiant and deeply connected. True to its title, incognito ergo sum (“I am incognito, therefore I am”) celebrates artistic anonymity and collective intention. Early performances saw the group playing under the radar, with Bixler inviting musicians to join without name recognition—an effort to shift the focus from ego to music-making itself. That ethos shines through on this record: conversational, unbound, and driven by curiosity over category.
