This remarkable quintet brings together the seasoned artistry of bandleader, trumpet player, and vocalist Matt Fattal with the wide-ranging creativity of singer, songwriter, vocalist, and thereminist Caroline Scruggs.
The Curious Quintet draws from the golden age of swing, New Orleans jazz, and classic American song, re-imagined with fresh energy. Inspired by legends like Louis Armstrong, Duke Ellington, Ella Fitzgerald and Louis Prima, the Quintet blends timeless style with playful exploration. The ensemble weaves together Matt’s vibrant horn with Caroline’s expressive voice and otherworldly theremin textures.
Invented in 1920 by Russian physicist Léon Theremin, the theremin was the very first electronic instrument and one of the only played without physical contact. Two metal antennas sense the position of the player's hands: one controls pitch, the other volume. The result is an instrument that feels impossibly futuristic, yet deeply human.
With a repertoire that dances across eras and moods, the Curious Quintet creates an experience that feels both familiar and unexpected, offering audiences a lively journey where tradition and imagination meet. This band includes Matt Fattal (trumpet/vocals), Caroline Scruggs (vocals/theremin/washboard); John Winn (clarinet/tenor sax); Stu Kindle (banjo); and Jordan Ponzi (bass).
