Countdown To Ecstasy
Submitted by Secret Society
Dave Douglas’s Brass Ecstasy — a postmodern take on the New Orleans street band, via Lester Bowie — plays live at Fern Bar HQ in about 20 minutes (3 PM EST), and there is a video stream. They band includes Vincent Chancey (horn), Luis Bonilla (trombone), Marcus Rojas (tuba), and Nasheet Waits (drums) — I caught them this Saturday at Jazz Standard and the group is killing (Marcus Rojas is literally unstoppable), so I definitely recommend tuning in. The band has a new record out, too, which like all Greenleaf releases, can be streamed in its entirety.
