About this Event
Michael Manring has probably the most unique approach to the electric bass in history. Known more for his work as a solo artist, Manring has pushed the electric bass way beyond and is hailed around the globe for his masterful playing. He is also known for genre bending, and the scope of his musical abilities is vast and wide.
Karl Evangelista ranks among a new wave of musicians pushing the traditions of jazz and experimental rock into the 21st century. Hailed by Signal to Noise magazine as “one of the most original instrumentalists and composers of his generation,” Evangelista’s music explores multicultural concepts with sonic intensity and political fervor.
Jazz is an art form defined by surprise and uncertainty, but one safe bet is that Scott Amendola’s presence on the bandstand means that something interesting is about to go down. The Berkeley drummer has provided a turbo-charged flow of creativity for the Bay Area music scene since the mid-1990s both as a ubiquitous sideman (Nels Cline, Charlie Hunter, Laurie Anderson, etc. ), and a bandleader with a knack for composing thrilling anthems.
