About this Event

Suggested Donation $10

Seattle-based pianist and composer Nelda Swiggett has been a vibrant force in the Pacific Northwest jazz scene since the early 1990s. Her compositions blend jazz with Afro-Cuban, gospel and classical influences, creating a distinctive and engaging sound. Swiggett's ensembles, including her trio, quintet, and chamber jazz projects, have graced stages at Dimitriou’s Jazz Alley, Bumbershoot, and the Earshot Jazz Festival.

At Madrona Grace Presbyterian Church, Swiggett leads her dynamic sextet, Megabopolis, featuring: Travis Ranney on tenor saxophone, Clif Swiggett on trombone, Michael Van Bebber on trumpet, Michael Glynn on bass, and Max Wood on drums. This ensemble delivers Swiggett's original compositions with intricate horn arrangements and compelling improvisations. Their performance promises an evening of innovative jazz that reflects Swiggett's commitment to musical excellence and creative expression.

Refreshments will be available by donation.
