Tue 10:00 BECCA STEVENS PRESENTS: IN ONE WIND
(Angelo Spagnolo, voice and guitar; Mallory Glaser, voice; Lily Claire Nussbaum, voice; Rob Lundberg, bass; Max Jaffe, percussion; Steven Lugerner, reeds)
In what seem like meager beginnings, In One Wind has blossomed from a one man act into a full fledged six piece ensemble, with a sound and reputation all their own.
Though steeped in the tradition of folk music, In One Wind incorporates a wide range of influences from jazz to country, even stretching effortlessly into the world of improvised music and the avant-garde. The ability to start a show with soft guitar strums and whispered vocals while seamlessly breaking into odd-metered grooves and lush three part harmonies enraptures their audiences. In One Wind is truly an idiosyncratic ensemble, an ensemble that appropriately represents their home – Brooklyn, NY – where they have quickly established a solid footing in the greater New York music scene.
Becca Stevens, host. Cover $8 http://www.inonewind.com
