“Different! Fun! Dynamic! I have heard these descriptions of Take That Back, led by composers/saxophonists Sue Orfield and Joan Hutton. But to experience a live performance of this band is to realize what an amazing chemistry that Orfield and Hutton have with each other and their band. Add in their inventive original compositions, and you’ve got a delightful evening of jazz.” – Dayna Martinez, Executive Director-Twin Cities Jazz Festival
Our new album “Splash” is out now!

“When Joan Hutton and Sue Orfield came together to be the frontline for their new group, Take That Back, the chemistry was tangible immediately. With Hutton on alto sax and bass clarinet and Orfield on her trusty tenor, the group recorded one of the most critically acclaimed jazz albums to come out of the Twin Cities this year.” – Sean McPherson, Music Director Jazz88FM
