Peter Evans (trumpet), Patricia Brennan (vibraphone), Miles Okazaki (guitar), Dan Weiss (drums)A new quartet of some of the most brilliant musicians on the scene in support of a new record on Pi Recordings.
Three time Shifting Foundation grantee Dan Weiss has been hailed as one of the top five jazz drummers by The New York Times, and his large ensemble recording “Fourteen” made the top ten list of their best recordings of 2014. Weiss’s innovative drumming and forward-thinking compositions have been pushing musical limits for decades. Weiss’s intense study of jazz, classical Indian, contemporary classical, west African, and metal sets a musical platform that creates a sound that transcends conventional style or genre. His compositional trademarks are angular yet emotive melodies, complex through-composed drum parts, rhythmic cycles native to many non-western music, and melodic shapes drawing directly from the raga system found in Indian classical music.
Sets at 8:30 & 10pm
