Local musicians with a shared passion for jazz brings this afternoon of live music to life, rooted in connection, listening, and the tradition of the genre.
Drawing on the music of Miles Davis, Duke Ellington, Antonio Jobim and lots of other great composers, the sound sits firmly within classic jazz — warm, expressive and full of character. The set moves naturally between up-tempo swing, intimate, late-night moods, and gentle Latin influences woven throughout.
