Friday, April 25th, at 7:00pm, Jazzbird welcomes Tom Wakeling’s West by Northwest! Featured artists include Tom Wakeling– Bass, Jason Carder– Trumpet, Angelo Versace– Piano, and Dom Moio– Drums.
West by Northwest brings together four highly acclaimed artists who have performed worldwide with a who’s who of jazz. The band’s live performances embrace jazz’ past, present, and future, with a great chemistry and an adventurous, hard-swinging style.
Trumpet master Jason Carder (Yanni, Maria Schneider, Ray Charles, Woody Herman), Tucson, AZ pianist Angelo Versace (Take 6, Jon Faddis, Slide Hampton), and the swinging rhythm team of bassist Tom Wakeling (Lee Konitz, James Moody, Mel Torme), and drummer Dom Moio (Clark Terry, Herb Ellis, Ahmad Jamal) join forces only a handful of times each year to perform as West by Northwest. Their time together on the bandstand is always a musical highlight of the year, both for them and for their audiences!
West by Northwest’s compositional maturity, musicality, humor, energy, and crushing groove always leave audiences wanting more!
