The Society is extremely pleased to have been invited to play this year's edition of the New Languages Festival, now in its fourth year and in an exciting new venue -- the Living Theatre on the Lower East Side (21 Clinton Street btw E Houston & Stanton). The lineup for the entire three-day festival is outstanding, but we are especially pleased to share the stage on Friday, June 13 with Tony Malaby (with Matt Brewer, bass, and Gerald Cleaver, drums) and tireless festival organizer Jackson Moore (with Eivind Opsvik, bass, and Eric McPherson, drums). You can hear all three bands for a mere $10.
As for our set on Friday, June 13 at 11 PM, I'm pleased to announce that the new co-conspirators will include trumpeters Tim Hagans and Ron Horton. Tim is technically already a Society co-conspirator, having played with our Canadian splinter cell at Toronto's Tranzac -- and incidentally, there is now YouTube video available from that hit (Part 1 & Part 2) -- but we had so much fun playing with him, we had to invite him back to play with us in NYC. Ron Horton, is, of course, a tremendous composer in his own right, and the former musical director of the Andrew Hill big band, in addition to being a first-rate improvising trumpet player. I am deeply honored to have both of these amazing musicians join the Society fold for our night at the New Languages Festival.
Here is the complete list of co-conspirators for this date:
