Featuring-

Eye Contact (from NYC)....w. Matt Lavelle, Matt Heyner and Ryan Sawyer (trumpet/bass clarinet, bass, and drums.) Free jazz. Matt Lavelle plays regularly with both Sabir Mateen and William Parker. "Improvised compositions that claim no overdubs but overflow with atmospherics."

Razzaq-Jewell Duo (the 614) take-no-prisoners free jazz with peaceful interludes, with Hasan Razzaq (alto saxophone) and Ryan Jewell (drums). One of the last chances to catch this outstanding duo before Ryan Jewell moves to Toronto. They recently concluded a tour with Tom Abbs on bass in which they played several Midwestern cities and performed with Douglas Ewart (AACM), David Boykin, Dan Godston and Jayve Montgomery.
