SUMMARY:Circles Around The Sun - FREE SHOW
DESCRIPTION:Los Angeles-based instrumental supergroup Circles Around The Sun is a contemporary instrumental rock band\, initially formed in 2015\, when Justin Kreutzmann\, son of Grateful Dead drummer Bill\, invited founder Neal Casal to compose the intermission music for the Dead’s “Fare Thee Well” concerts. \nAs those shows celebrated the band’s 50th anniversary\, Circles Around The Sun’s earliest compositions Interludes For The Dead were designed to reflect the Dead’s overall spacey\, improvised\, and groove-laden feel. \nThe response was so positive that they continued on with a follow-up project\, Let It Wander\, in 2018. This record was less influenced by the Dead and more free-form\, delivering on the roots influence of jazz-funk\, soul\, and fusion. \nThe band underwent a fundamental transition in 2019. After completing the Meets Joe Russo EP and a third album\, their guitarist Neal Casal died on August 26\, 2019. He left his bandmates a note asking for them to continue in his absence– to continue recording\, touring\, and playing together. The band decided to carry on with a rotating cast of guitarists\, landing on John Lee Shannon as the permanent replacement. They continue the legacy to this day. \nCircles Around The Sun is a first-of-its-kind band that has continued to trail-blaze the instrumental cosmic disco space for nearly a decade\, shapeshifting through several iterations. Not just spiritually but actually and tangibly linked to Grateful Dead history\, the band’s music shares shelf space with post-rock\, psych-rock\, jazz-funk\, and good old fashioned psychedelia\, while their recorded output has included collaborations with such diverse luminaries as Joe Russo\, Billy Strings and Mikaela Davis. Original instrumentals form the bedrock of CATS’ live show\, taking fans on a whole different journey every time. \nMeet the CATS: Adam MacDougall (keys)\, Dan Horne (bass)\, John Lee Shannon (guitar)\, Mark Levy (drums)

SUMMARY:JAZZ AT LINCOLN CENTER ORCHESTRA WITH WYNTON MARSALIS
DESCRIPTION:The Jazz at Lincoln Center Orchestra (JLCO)\, comprising 15 of the finest jazz soloists and ensemble players today\, has been the Jazz at Lincoln Center resident orchestra since 1988 and spends over a third of the year on tour across the world. Featured in all aspects of Jazz atLincoln Center’s programming\, this remarkably versatile orchestra performs and lead seducational events in New York\, across the U.S.\, and around the globe; in concert halls; dance venues; jazz clubs; public parks; and with symphony orchestras\, ballet troupes\, local students\, and an ever-expanding roster of guest artists. Under Music Director Wynton Marsalis\, the Jazz at Lincoln Center Orchestra performs a vast repertoire\, from rare historic compositions to Jazz at Lincoln Center-commissioned works\, including compositions and arrangements by Duke Ellington\, Count Basie\, Fletcher Henderson\, Thelonious Monk\, Mary Lou Williams\, Dizzy Gillespie\, Benny Goodman\, Charles Mingus\, and current and former Jazz at Lincoln Center Orchestra members Wynton Marsalis\, Wycliffe Gordon\, Ted Nash\, Victor Goines\, Sherman Irby\, Chris Crenshaw\, and Carlos Henriquez. For more information on Jazz at Lincoln Center\, please visit www.jazz.org. \nWYNTON MARSALIS\nWynton Marsalis(Music Director\, Trumpet) is the Managing and Artistic Director of Jazz at Lincoln Center(JALC). Born in New Orleans\, Louisiana in 1961\, he is the son of renowned jazz pianist and music educator Ellis Marsalis\, Jr. Marsalis was gifted his first trumpet at age six by Al Hirt; soon thereafter\, he began playing in New Orleans’ famed Fairview Baptist Church Bandled by banjoist Danny Barker. However\, it wasn’t until he turned twelve that Marsalis began to formally train on the trumpet and perform in bands throughout the city\, from the New Orleans Philharmonic and New Orleans Youth Orchestra to funk bands\, concert bands\, and small jazz ensembles. As a teenager\, his passion for music rapidly escalated. In 1979\, at the age of seventeen\, Marsalis moved to New York City to study classical trumpet at The Juilliard School. Yet he quickly entrenched himself in New York’s effervescent jazz scene\, launching his career with the legendary Art Blakey &The Jazz Messengers. At just nineteen\, Marsalis hit the road with his own band—he has been touring the world ever since. From 1981 to the time of this writing\, he has performed 5\,328 concerts in 856 distinct cities and 66 countries around the world. \nWynton Marsalis’ core beliefs and foundation for living are based on the principles of jazz. He promotes individual creativity (improvisation)\, collective cooperation (swing)\, gratitude and good manners (sophistication)\, and facing adversity with persistent optimism (the blues).
