Caroline Davis’ Alula ft. Chris Tordini and Kate Gentile
1601 Johnston St, Vancouver, BC V6H 3R9
Initial inspiration for Caroline Davis’ “most formally innovative group yet” (New York Times) sprang from the pages of The Sibley Guide to Birds, specifically the hidden part of a wing that appears like magic during take-off and landing. The Brooklyn-based saxophonist/vocalist’s complex, beautiful balance of improv and composed material reveals and occludes, taking unexpected flight paths to wherever Davis points her remarkable imagination. A Downbeat Rising Star winner who’s worked with Marquis Hill, Lee Konitz, Angelica Sanchez, and Deerhoof’s Greg Saunier, Caroline Davis’ Alula features Chris Tordini (Tyshawn Sorey, John Hollenbeck) bass and Kate Gentile (Ava Mendoza, Matt Mitchell) drums.
