SUMMARY:Revolutionary Snake Ensemble
DESCRIPTION:Join the Revolutionary Snake Ensemble as they celebrate the Cuneiform Records release of their 5th album\, “Serpentine”\, recorded live at Regattabar!! \nThe Revolutionary Snake Ensemble is a funk/street beat improvisational brass band performing a unique blend of original and traditional music. Featuring award-winning and acclaimed Boston-area musicians\, the group has been attracting a devoted following by making beautiful noise & creative sounds for over three decades.  The group has performed in the US and Europe\, continuing “to push the brass band tradition forward in an entirely original way\, all the while making music that’s a heck of a lot of fun.” – NYC Jazz Record. \nLed by saxophonist/composer Ken Field\, RSE “mines the vein of New Orleans – with post-bop\, and touches of Avant – this band cooks\, edgy\, raucous\, fun\, and first rate!” – KBCS Radio\, Washington.  The Boston Globe says that RSE “brilliantly bridges the booty/brain barrier!” and in a prescient characterization\, Step Tempest writes that RSE is “finding joy in the rhythms of the street\, in the melodies of the everyday\, and in the shouts one creates against the darkness.”  KUT\, Austin\, Tx calls RSE’s music “something quite original in the world of jazz and beyond.”

SUMMARY:The Mike Stern Group with Dennis Chambers Plus Leni Stern\, Edmond Gilmore\, and Bob Franceschini
DESCRIPTION:July 16\, 2024: Today\, 6-time GRAMMY nominated jazz guitarist Mike Stern announced his new album Echoes And Other Songs will be released on September 13. Marking his debut release on Mack Avenue Music Group/Artistry Music\, Echoes delivers all the elements that longtime Stern fans want\, and then some: the hook-filled rapid-fire bebop writing; the gorgeous melodic sensibility culled from African music\, gospel and other influences; the breakneck improvisations that pepper hornlike bop virtuosity with rock fire. Along with the announcement\, Stern has shared the lead single “Stuff Happens\,” which features the 9-time Grammy Award winner Christian McBride. \nListen to “Stuff Happens” \n“It’s definitely got a Blues vibe and it opens with a short but really wonderful solo from Christian McBride\,” Stern says of the track. “He is definitely not only one of the greatest upright bass players ever\, but he plays amazing electric bass. Of course\, I knew that going into this project\, so I asked him to play a lot of electric bass and he did that so beautifully on this tune. He played great on everything.” \nStern has been celebrated for his versatile playing style since he first hit the scene in the 1970s\, transcending genres by performing with Blood\, Sweat & Tears\, Miles Davis\, Jaco Pastorius\, The Brecker Brothers\, David Sanborn\, Béla Fleck\, Yellowjackets and more. With Echoes and Other Songs\, Stern brings together an all-star group of musicians\, including Christian McBride\, Chris Potter\, Antonio Sanchez\, Richard Bona & Dennis Chambers\, for 11 brand-new originals that will captivate and unite guitar and jazz fans of all generations. This is Stern’s first release since the loss of longtime producer and keyboardist Jim Beard (who played on and produced the album)\, the closure of Stern’s beloved 55 Bar\, and his 2016 injury\, which he continues to face physical hurdles from.
