SUMMARY:Steve Swell\, Paul Dunmall\, Olie Brice\, Mark Sanders
DESCRIPTION:Dunmall\, Brice and Sanders are familiar faces at the Vortex. For this evening they are joined by Steve Swell. Swell is often associated with the New York downtown scene\, he studied at Jersey City State College where he struck a long-lasting friendship with drummer Lou Grassi. He went on to study with Roswell Rudd who\, alongside Grachan Moncur III and Bill Watrous\, made the strongest impression on him. Swell then moved up through the ranks learning the ropes with Lionel Hampton\, Buddy Rich\, and Jaki Byard. In the early ‘80s\, he spent a lot of time playing Broadway shows and at the Roseland. In the mid-'80s\, he met Ken McIntyre and Walter Thompson\, who reignited his interest in creative music. As for Herb Robertson and Hank Roberts\, they gave him a first taste of Europe. In the early ‘90s\, he gained some more exposure with Tim Berne's band as well as Joey Baron's Barondown and Phillip Johnston's Big Trouble. Continuing to enrich his experience as a sideman he later became a member of The Little Huey Creative Music Orchestra\, Lou Grassi's PoBand\, and Jemeel Moondoc's Jus Grew Orchestra. In 1996\, he recorded his first album under his own name with saxophonist Chris Kelsey\, Observations. He then took part in several cooperative bands\, which include the Implicate Order\, the Transcendentalists\, and the Particle Data Group\, and led various incarnations of his quartet and trio. Through the years\, Swell has developed a special kinship with Ken Filiano and Lou Grassi\, with whom he has shared a number of activities. In 2002\, he started a new trio that included bassist Tom Abbs and drummer Geoff Mann. The following year saw the release of the first recording by his Unified Theory of Sound project featuring Jemeel Moondoc\, Cooper-Moore\, Wilber Morris\, Kevin Norton\, and Matt LaVelle.\n\nhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0r6JdL4rMws

SUMMARY:BIRD ON THE WIRE PRESENTS: GRANDBROTHERS
DESCRIPTION:Following the release of their acclaimed debut album Dilation earlier this year\, Grandbrothers are set to hit the road in February 2016 for their first major headlining tour with a special show at London’s Vortex Jazz Club.\n\nGrandbrothers are Erol Sarp and Lukas Vogel. Together\, they combine classical composition with modern\, experimental production and sound design. Their debut album Dilation was recorded using a grand piano and a series of self-built electromechanical hammers\, which were triggered to ‘play’ the piano\, creating new and previously undiscovered sounds. Surprisingly\, there are no synthesizers on Dilation: everything comes from the grand piano.\n\nTheir one-of-a-kind live show replicates the process by which the duo made Dilation. Their unconventional live setup lends itself to spontaneity: it’s like witnessing open-heart surgery on the grand piano\, where no two performances are the same. Meanwhile\, the influence of techno and club music on their sound becomes amplified during performance\, with exhilarating and often unpredictable results.
