We’re excited to announce a show—that will be broadcast live on KALX!—coming up later this month on Saturday 2/25 at the gallery! Swarm Intelligence, a new band featuring a few folks who have played here before (Grex + Jordan Glenn, Phillip Greenlief, Dan Seamans, Cory Wright), will be performing along with the Ross Hammond Quartet (w/Vinny Golia, Steuart Liebig, Alex Cline), who are celebrating the release of Ross’s new CD! 

The sextet of Swarm Intelligence synthesizes the sounds of Grex with “the instrumentation and rhythmic concept of modern jazz (reeds/bass/drums), evoking the timbres and improvisational acumen of the likes of the Paul Motian Trio, Liberation Music Orchestra, Marion Brown, and Bennie Maupin while tethering itself to the multi-idiomatic sensibilities of contemporary chamber pop.”
