JAZZ 4 ALL! Featuring: Jeff Haas, Marion Hayden, Laurie Sears, Anthony Stanco, and Tariq Gardner

Native Detroiter and protégé of one of the strongest eras of the Detroit jazz scene, Vincent Chandler, the trombone master, has put together an electrifying band for this Jazz Series show. Compiled of some of Detroit's most exciting, young musicians, The Vincent Chandler Experience will be blurring the lines between jazz and electric fusion in the best possible way. Although this is not Vincent's Alluvion debut (he played with the incredible octet last year at our MLK Day concert) it will truly be a fresh, bold first for this band on our stage. A do not miss!

Alluvion Jazz Series: The Vincent Chandler Experience

The band: Jeff Haas on piano, Jack Dryden on bass, and Randy Marsh on drums, with Laurie Sears on saxophone. This week, featuring THREE SPECIAL GUESTS: Anthony Stanco on trumpet, Marion Hayden on bass, and Tariq Gardner on drums. This will be a night to remember!
