Search Party featuring Max Watts, Kasan Belgrave, and Allen Dennard will give us a proper dose of live musicianship, blurring the lines and reinventing the relationship between jazz and techno. Expect deep grooves, improvisational energy, and finely layered rhythms that drift seamlessly between sophisticated jazz sensibilities and forward-thinking electronic production. Their set promises an atmosphere that is immersive, elegant, and undeniably magnetic.

Orchestra Hall

Detroit-based Ian Finkelstein (aka Ian Fink) has been performing professionally since the age of 14, when he was a member of Detroit’s Civic Jazz Orchestra. Equally active in Detroit’s house and techno communities, Fink is a key force in the next generation of jazz innovators and brings together some of Detroit’s finest jazz artists for a small combo performance at the intimate Ypsilanti Freighthouse.

Ypsilanti Freighthouse

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!
