Atlantis Quartet
7:00
Cover $5
Twin cities based Atlantis Quartet has combined youth and experience to forge a tremendous, unique, and original group sound in the modern jazz idiom. The compositions range in style from multi-meter grooves to complex harmonic explorations; from fusionistic rhythms to free and timeless tone poems, all filled with world class improvisation that is both organic and volatile. Clive Griffin of Jazz Improv Magazine describes the band as “Highly skilled musicians who have invested themselves heavily to develop their individual approaches…together, they sound genuinely inspired.” The group features four of Minnesota’s most exciting musicians, Brandon Wozniak (saxophone), Zacc Harris (guitar), Pete Hennig (drums), and Chris Bates (bass)
Luke Polipnick @ Kitty Cat Klub
