Dave Kline (violin) feat. Steve Davis trombone (Chick Corea/Art Blakey) , Abena Koomson-Davis vocals (Natalie Merchant), Chao Tian (Chinese dulcimer), Lynn Veronneau (vocals), Buddy Speir guitar, Brian Simms keys, TJ Turqman bass, Olaolu Caleb drums. Funky/jazzy/bluesy/rocky fusion with a generous splatter of world seasonings.
"All About Jazz" review of last year’s show with this ensemble:
“Keyboard, guitar, bass and drums: a standard jazz quartet, no doubt, no argument. But add electric violin, trombone and the Chinese dulcimer and you've got something entirely different. Dave Kline and friends brought that unique line-up and a passel of original tunes to Blues Alley in DC's Georgetown district. The result? - as tasty and exotic as the jambalaya and shrimp and grits we enjoyed while Kline and company performed their musical magic ... You had to be there (hopefully, this and the other tunes will appear on Kline's forthcoming album).”
