The combination of the voice and guitar of Sara Serpa and André Matos is magic, dazzling and calm. After a 7 years hiatus, they released Night Birds, a new album exploring songs, improvisation and reflections on parenthood and climate change. The Portuguese native and New York based artists have been working together since 2005. They achieved a unique sonic world, drawing upon pure and contemplative sounds through a personal approach to melody and poetry. Their musical identity reveals both their Portuguese culture as well as the artistic environment of New York. Serpa and Matos have performed their music in countries like Portugal, Brazil, Uruguay, Argentina, Germany, Netherlands, Spain, and the United States.With special guest Dov Manski, piano.JP Schlegelmilch and Adam Schneit are well into their second decade of making music together. Over the past few years of performing as a piano/clarinet duo they have developed a repertoire of music that moves freely between their many shared interests: tuneful songs, blues and boogie-woogie, hypnotic minimalism, bebop, gospel music, Thelonious Monk, and George Harrison.
Frequent collaborators Andrew Dow, Sylvester Germaine, Luke Marantz, Jeff Davis, with a common sense of passionate abandon, will present a set of music mostly penned by electric bassist Andrew Dow.
