The Bad Plus

I read about them in bass player. They take rock & prog songs and do jazz versions of them.

Lithium

I'm not much for most jazz.  Lithium did nothing for me but Tom Sawyer was incredible!  For the guy to pull off those bass lines on an upright was awesome - I really liked it.

I love this band.  They cover all kinds of crazy stuff - Pixies, Aphex Twin, Black Sabbath... 

Their originals are cool too:
