"Feed The Fire" Presents: Maria Grande Quartet with Shakoor Hakeem, Miguel Russell & Gervis Myles

María Grand (alto saxophone, tenor saxophone, vocals, composition), Shakoor Hakeem (percussion), Miguel Russell (drums), Gervis Myles (bass)

With this new ensemble, Grand focuses on drums & rhythm and goes back to her New York roots, back to the city where she learned how to play and made her mark. This band features new compositions seeking to honor the continuum of Black music that is often called jazz, as well as focusing her intention of collective ritual with almost folkloric sounds. The setlist is, in its essence, a meditation that travels spontaneously between screeching sounds of creation to sparse emptiness. This is Grand’s most intense project, promising to deliver concerts with high energetic inputs and expressive introspection for both listeners and players. For the love of sound.

All shows at Sam First are 21+ (no one under the age of 21 will be permitted)

Show Times: 7:30pm & 9:30pm, and a separate ticket is required for each show.
