The Larry Schaefer Memorial Orchestra is a large ensemble that plays improvised music, sometimes with minimal structures. Here, the ensemble incorporates elements of free jazz, soul jazz, and Afrobeat. Further, they are inspired by electric period Miles Davis, early Weather Report, Can, James Brown and Fela Kuti, among others.This is an all-star group of accomplished artists from across the improvised music spectrum. Additionally, each member of the group leads their own projects and brings their considerable compositional and listening skills to the table. No two shows are alike; no two songs are alike. This is a celebration of immediate, ephemeral music.
The Orchestra features Bryan Nichols and John Keston on electric piano and synth, Jeremy Ylvisaker and Dee Kesler on guitars. Also, Erik Fratzke on bass, Peter Goggin, Bryan Murray, and Chris Thomson on saxophones, Jake Baldwin on trumpet. Additionally, Joey van Phillips, Martin Dosh, and Umar Malik on drums and percussion.
Martin Dosh has been making independent music out of his basement in Minneapolis—and around the world—for twenty years. He first found acclaim with his self-titled debut in 2003. Then, he continued making Dosh records, releasing many in a short time. He also played and recorded with Andrew Bird from 2005 to 2014. Moreover, his music is hard to pin down: a genre-less, percussive hybrid of electronic, hip-hop, and jazz.
