Marking the release of his new album, “Few Ill Words: Solo Trombone at The Tank, Vol. 1” on this night, Andy Clausen is a Brooklyn-based trombonist, composer, arranger, and educator. He is a founding member of genre-bending brass quartet The Westerlies, a frequent collaborator with artists including Fleet Foxes, Aoife O’Donovan, Haley Heynderickx, Conrad Tao, and Nico Muhly, and a prolific composer for visual media, audio storytelling, and concert music. 2024 marks the debut of Andy’s solo trombone project, a two-volume set recorded in the profound reverberation of a converted railroad water silo in rural Colorado.

Alena Spanger is a singer/keyboardist/songwriter based in Brooklyn. Weaving together angular art-pop songcraft, unorthodox vocalizations, and intricate arrangements, Spanger’s songs construct their own elaborate and immersive worlds.Introducing “Wish”, a new band led by trumpeter Ray Larsen. The group premiered at the Owl Music Parlor last fall as a part of the 2023 Festival of New Trumpet Music. Featuring Sara Schoenbeck (bassoon), Andy Clausen (trombone) and Ryan El-Solh (guitar). This music is bicoastal: written with love in Seattle and brought to life in New York.
