About this Event
Daruma is a fresh, new contemporary jazz project featuring original music by some of Denver’s finest young talent. Included in their ensemble is a Wichita native, Zach Rich, who will be showing off his trombone skills at the lounge. The band's sound takes audiences from deep grooves, to intimate ballads, to Coltrane-inspired swing. Daruma reinterprets the jazz aesthetic for the 21st century and crosses it with progressive rock, film music, and neo-soul in a genre-bending original sound.
Members of the ensemble have performed with leading voices in contemporary music ranging from Theo Croker, Marvin "Smitty" Smith, Billy Childs, and Rufus Reid, to Dave Kikoski, Joe Farnsworth, the Colorado Symphony Orchestra, and Big Gigantic. They’ve played at notable venues including Red Rocks Amphitheatre, the Blue Note Amsterdam, and Birdland, and have won ASCAP and Downbeat awards.
The ensemble will release their debut album on the Monk Music label in the spring of 2024.
