Atlas Maior transforms natural cave acoustics into a mesmerizing soundscape with their original music, seamlessly blending Progressive Jazz, Middle Eastern, Latin, and Indian music traditions. The band, comprising Joshua Thomson (alto saxophone, flutes), Josh Peters (oud, lavta), Gary Parsons (drums), and Josh Flowers (upright bass), crafts a distinctive sound that navigates between intimate sincerity and dynamic melodies with incendiary rhythmic passages. With a national and international touring history, Atlas Maior has garnered acclaim from Jazziz Magazine, NPR's PRI The World, New York Daily Music, Jazz Journal, Afropop Worldwide, and Song Lines. In 2019, they earned the title of City of Austin Cultural Ambassadors. Noteworthy performances at esteemed venues like the Rothko Chapel in Houston and the acclaimed Echo Bridge in San Antonio showcase the group's continued musical excellence.
