kh1958 Posted August 30, 2010 Author Report Posted August 30, 2010 Janiva Magness at Pearl (the corner of Pearl and Commerce Street in Downtown Dallas), on Saturday, September 4. Is anyone else going to this concert? Quote
Big Al Posted September 2, 2010 Report Posted September 2, 2010 I hope so. We got a Labor Day invite from a friend for that night, but we haven't committed yet. I say that because, despite the fact that I've been told many times on this board that the gig is Saturday night, my addled brain continues to think that the Magness gig is SUNDAY night and so I was planning around that! AARRGHHH!!!! Quote
Jim Alfredson Posted September 2, 2010 Report Posted September 2, 2010 Hope to see you guys at the show on Saturday! Quote
JSngry Posted September 4, 2010 Report Posted September 4, 2010 Sorry, won't be able to make it. Had hoped to, but a lot of personal affairs lately have had me feeling battered and bruised, and LTB & I have a chance to just chill at home the whole Labor Day weekend, just us two, in air-conditioned, isolated suburban splendor (or an illusory semblance thereof). Probably the best option available. Music may be the healing force of the universe, but right now that's music's and the universe's problem, not mine. Have a good gig, enjoy Dallas the few hours(?) you're here, and hopefully there will be a next time that I can promise to try to make it out to when I get my center of gravity feeling more spunktatious, ok?

BeBop Posted September 8, 2010 Report Posted September 8, 2010 Friday September 10th, Jacob Fred Jazz Oddyssey at The Parish, Austin. From Allmusic: When novices discover the experimental music of the Jacob Fred Jazz Odyssey, they are surprised to learn that there is no one named Jacob Fred — the group's name is meant to be clever and ironic. Novices also learn that the Tulsa, OK outfit's mildly avant-garde blend of jazz, rock, and funk draws on a wide variety of influences; JFJO have been influenced by everyone from electric Miles Davis and Jimi Hendrix to Sun Ra, John Coltrane, Cecil Taylor, Larry Young, and John Scofield.

kh1958 Posted January 4, 2011 Author Report Posted January 4, 2011 James Spaulding!?!?!?!?!?! That one stood out to me also, though I've seen him as a sideman a few times (always a pleasure). I'm not clear whether these concerts feature these artists with a pickup group, or bands that they bring in. Quote
epistrophy arts Posted January 18, 2011 Report Posted January 18, 2011 Sonzala Media, Austin, TX, austinsurreal@gmail.com, 713-261-5102 Twitter - @Pushermania FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE Chicago Jazz Legends Come to Texas for Two Special Shows Proper Ent., Nameless Sound & Project Row Houses join forces with AustinSurreal/HoustonSoReal to present Ethnic Heritage Ensemble in Austin and Houston. Jan. 12, 2011 – Proper Entertainment, Nameless Sound, Project Row Houses and AustinSurreal/HoustonSoReal are happy to announce two exciting performances by Chicago jazz legends, Ethnic Heritage Ensemble. Feb. 9, 2011 – Ethnic Heritage Ensemble live at The ND, 501 N. I-H 35, Austin, TX (Presented by Proper Ent. & AustinSurreal) Feb. 10, 2011 – Ethnic Heritage Ensemble live at The Historic El Dorado Ballroom, 2310 Elgin St., Houston, TX (Presented by Nameless Sound & HoustonSoReal, co-sponsored by Project Row Houses) Founded by internationally renowned percussionist and composer Dr. Kahil El'Zabar, in 1973, Ethnic Heritage Ensemble is criss crossing the United States throughout the month of February on their "A Time for Healing" tour. Their live show is like nothing you’ve experienced before. Ethnic Heritage Ensemble is a trio of jazz innovators who have influenced generations of musicians from Chicago and around the world. Kahil El Zabar has played alongside a myriad of jazz greats: Dizzy Gillespie, Cannonball Adderly, Pharoah Sanders, Archie Shepp to name but a few, and was also in the bands of Stevie Wonder, Donnie Hathaway, Nina Simone, and Paul Simon. Kahil has also recorded with Sonia Dada and Poi Dog Pondering and leads the jazz/house outfit, JUBA Collective. Kahil joined Chicago's Association for the Advancement of Creative Musicians in 1968, and by 1975 he was chairman of the organization, which led Time Magazine to write an article about his being the youngest administrator of a major arts organization in America. Kahil scored the films Mo’ Money, Love Jones and How U Like Me Now, and did the musical arrangements for the stage performances of Disney’s “The Lion King." (cont) Ernest Khabeer Dawkins is one of Chicago's premier jazz saxophonists and is the founder and leader of his own group, New Horizons Ensemble. Dawkins has worked with many music greats including: Ramsey Lewis, Muhal Richard Abrams, Lester Bowie, Edward Wilkerson, Jr., Henry Threadgill, Amina Claudine Myers, Anthony Braxton, Jack McDuff, Don Moye, Jerry Butler, and The Dells. Corey Wilkes is a relative newcomer, but his accomplishments approach that of an already seasoned vet. He burst onto the Chicago jazz scene in 2002 and soon took on the ghost of Lester Bowie to fill the vacant trumpet seat in the The Art Ensemble of Chicago. No easy shoes to fill. Since then he’s shared the stage with Wynton Marsalis, Roy Hargrove, Ledisi, Soulive, James Moody, Meshell Ndegeocello, Mike Phillips, Roscoe Mitchell, Von Freeman, Fred Anderson, Will Calhoun, Malcom Jamal-Warner and so many more. Corey’s soulful notes can be heard gracing a variety of projects such as DJ sets by Logic, Osunlade and Josh Deep; tracks on Hidden Beach’s Unwrapped Vol 4, as well as Kahil El Zabar’s Ascension Loft Series. These shows are not to be missed. Kahil El Zabar is available for interviews in advance. Contact Matt Sonzala at austinsurreal@gmail.com or 713-261-5102 We hope to see you out. www.austinsurreal.com www.nameslesssound.org www.projectrowhouses.org www.properentertainment.com Quote
