He shares a wildfire chemistry with bassist Tommy Babin (Haram\, Benzene)\, whose playing exerts an irresistible gravitational pull. \nJuly 2 • Roundhouse – Studio (Dave Rempis Workshop) @ 1:30pm • FREE

SUMMARY:Big Lazy
DESCRIPTION:“Simultaneously noir and pastoral\, gothic and modern\, Big Lazy conjures images from big sky country to seedy back rooms with cinematic clarity.” – Kosmos \nNew York-based Big Lazy’s music falls somewhere between sultry lounge-jazz and fractured surf-pop. The slinky\, smoky vibe evokes film-noir soundtracks\, dark alleys and finger-snapping beat poets. Lead guitarist Stephen Ulrich is the composer for the HBO series Bored to Death. The New Yorker calls his music “stunningly beautiful.” With Andrew Hall bass and Yuvall Lion drums. \n“Avant twang\, Americana noir\, garage chamber music\, whatever you’d like to label composer/guitarist Stephen Ulrich’s NYC-based trio Big Lazy\, one thing is undeniable—the vibe is unforgettable.” Dusty Wright\, Culture Catch

SUMMARY:Sam Tudor + Kandle featuring Kendel Carson and Debra-Jean Creelman
DESCRIPTION:SAM TUDOR \nThe Georgia Straight calls guitarist/vocalist Sam Tudor “a gem with a penchant for everything left field.” From hushed\, confessional tones to cathartic intensity\, Tudor’s psychedelia-tinged pop is “beautifully self-aware\, sonically interesting\, and masterful” (Beatroute). The core group of Tudor\, Jasper Wrinch bass\, and Yunjin Claire Lee synthesizer is rounded out by a shifting collective of genre-resistant players who bring new energy to every performance. \nKANDLE feat. KENDEL CARSON AND DEBRA-JEAN CREELMAN \nWalking a zigzag line through the annals of outlaw country and the unadorned roots of rock ’n’ roll\, three of the West Coast’s finest folk witches convene for sublime spellcasting. The combined voices of Kandle (who has collaborated with some of Canada’s finest songwriters\, including Sam Roberts and Coeur de pirate)\, Debra-Jean Creelman (ex-Mother Mother)\, and Kendel Carson (Alan Doyle) constitute a single exquisite instrument\, yielding a sound that’s raw\, vulnerable\, and transfixing.

SUMMARY:François Houle RECODER 4tet with Gordon Grdina\, Mark Helias & Gerry Hemingway
DESCRIPTION:Experimental music bible The Wire noted that “one reason why Canadian clarinetist François Houle’s compositions roar with such fierce and indefatigable energy lies in the personnel and instrumentation he’s assembled to play them”\, and with his new RECODER 4tet\, he’s brought together an absolute dream team. Drummer Gerry Hemingway first captured Houle’s ear on the legendary 1980s Braxton Quartet recordings\, while bassist Mark Helias has performed with everyone from Ed Blackwell to Tony Malaby. Joining these two monster international musicians is Francois’ long-time collaborator\, JUNO Award-winning Vancouver guitarist Gordon Grdina.

SUMMARY:Gordon Grdina's Nomad Trio with Matt Mitchell and Jim Black
DESCRIPTION:Gordon Grdina is “the rare jazz guitarist who plays a lot of notes\, yet manages to find a way not to waste them” (New York Music Daily). He also spearheads—and absolutely nails—a dizzying number of creative collaborations with heavy-hitters like Matthew Shipp\, Mats Gustafsson\, and Marc Ribot. Here\, the JUNO Award winner creates edgy\, intricate\, and insistent sounds with pianist Matt Mitchell (John Hollenbeck\, Tim Berne) and drummer Jim Black (Human Feel\, AlasNoAxis)\, two massively influential legends of the downtown New York scene who share with Grdina “an attunement to radical possibility at any moment\, and the expansive technical vocabulary to justify any digression” (WBGO).
