Due to bad weather and airline cancellations, Zoh Amba and Chris Corsano’s 9:00PM appearance with Lisa Cay Miller at Revue Stage tonight has been replaced with Joe Rainey.

1601 Johnston St, Vancouver, BC V6H 3R9

One of the brightest new stars in avant-jazz, NYC-based composer/saxophonist/flutist Zoh Amba’s music is “a chaotic spiritual exploration, a path to enlightenment strewn with skronking wails” (Stereogum). Though conservatory-trained, she developed her sound in the forest near her Tennessee home, giving folk melodies free run alongside influences from uncompromising players like Albert Ayler and David S. Ware. John Zorn produced her 2022 debut, and she’s collaborated with Immanuel Wilkins, Jim White (Dirty Three), William Parker, and more. Amba’s joined by drummer and regular collaborator Chris Corsano—who’s brought “impressive chops and vivid imagination” (JazzTimes) to his work with fellow iconoclasts Björk, Thurston Moore, Jim O’Rourke, and Nels Cline—and the striking and investigative Vancouver pianist Lisa Cay Miller.
