Duration: All Day
Categories: Nocturne Jazz

Briana Harris is thrilled to debut a new quintet featuring old friends and new musical explorations. In February 2021, these five musicians came together for a new recorded project with Boulder's Octave Records. These live performances are an extension of the spontaneity, ease, and camaraderie built from that recording session.  The band will perform original music from Briana that mixes hard-bop roots with chamber jazz touches, and always leaves room for unexpected collaboration. These live performances will be the public debut of many new pieces of music from Bri, which were written in the winter of pandemic isolation, reaching with optimism towards spring. 

Briana Harris - Sax, Jordan Skomal - Trumpet, Annie Booth - Piano, Matt Smiley - Bass, Brian Claxton - Drums
