Gregg Belisle-Chi's HUM ~ James Carney Quartet Oct 11
7:30 Door 8:00 Show $15 suggested donationHUM is the workings of guitarist/composer Gregg Belisle-Chi and his cohorts of friendly improvisers Sam Decker (tenor sax), Noah Garabedian (bass), and Jeff Davis (drums.) Their record was released on Joel Harrison’s guitar-forward thinking label AGS Recordings, which features a slew of today’s six-string stars including Miles Okazaki, Kurt Rosenwinkel, and Nels Cline, who wrote about HUM: “A merging of allegedly opposing forces/sensibilities. A balancing act of sorts. An eloquent evocation of intricate imagination and thoughtful improvisation. A dalliance with intensity that somehow often ends up feeling like intimacy. These are sentence fragments attempting to describe in words that which is certainly beyond words. Ah, the nagging and seemingly inescapable conundrum…So rarely does music that possesses more than a whiff of boldness also offer such graceful moments of open-ended musical conversation…”)
JCQ will feature Tony Malaby, Mark Helias & Tom Rainey
