What happens when you get five close musicians in a room and ask, “What do you want to play”? Luckily, we put them in a room weeks ago to ask that question, but what you’re left with is a deep look into the unit, as well as each individual musician. Tonight, take a front row seat to five creative forces coming together, playing music that they are excited about. What can you expect? We can’t say, they haven’t been locked in a room together yet.
