About this Event
Horns have been the backbone of the 20 year deep genre-bending West Coast musical collective known as Jazz Mafia. “New Directions In Brass” features the brass of Jazz Mafia taking the 100 year old brassband ensemble into the future, with innovative new rhythms that reflect current music, while keeping a solid foundation in the tradition of New Orleans Jazz and street party music.
Adam Theis- Trombone, Ross Eustis- Trumpet, Richard Benitez- Trumpet, Tommy Occhiuto- Sax, Jonathan Seiberlich- Tuba, Darian Gray- Drums
In the year 2000, trombonist, bassist, composer, arranger, and producer Adam Theis co-founded Jazz Mafia – an eclectic artist collective of forward-thinking and accomplished players in Electro, Hip-Hop, World, Classical, and Jazz. Twenty years in the making, Jazz Mafia is a prolific staple of the quintessential San Francisco sound, uniting creative and accomplished Bay Area instrumentalists, vocalists, MCs, composers, and arrangers.
The collective quickly garnered a reputation for its collaborative and risk-taking spirit, and over the years has worked with Roy Ayers, Lyrics Born, Zion-I, Rebelution, Latyrx, Galactic, Ledesi, Blackalicious, and Jackie Greene, to name a few. This is a continuation of Jazz Mafia’s much talked about monthly residency at The Sound Room.
