CAB is a jazz fusion supergroup founded by Bunny Brunel, Dennis Chambers, and Tony MacAlpine.[1] Since their formation in 2000, they have released four studio albums and two live albums.[2] Their second album, CAB 2, received a nomination for Best Contemporary Jazz Album at the 2002 Grammy Awards.[3] Other members who have been a part of CAB include Patrice Rushen, Virgil Donati, David Hirschfelder, and Brian Auger.[2]

When asked about the band's name, Brunel said:

“ ...Center Tone Records wanted me to record an album with Dennis Chambers and Tony MacAlpine. [I thought I’d create an acronym of our last names] Chambers, Alpine, and Brunel. I didn’t know that MacAlpine was an ‘M’ and not separate from the ‘A.’ But we thought it was a good way to carry the music... CAB, so we left it like that. ”
— Bunny Brunel, All About Jazz[2]
