Sixth Sense is an electrifying jazz sextet comprised of WMU jazz students who are diving into the Kalamazoo music scene. These six members share a love of bebop, post-bob, and contemporary music, which has allowed the group to explore tasteful arrangements of classic tunes and even produce original compositions.
The band features a fiery horn section, with Haden Bovee (Alto Sax), from Middleville, MI, Blaine Forsyth (Tenor Sax), from Tawas City, MI, and Colin Woniewski (Trombone), from Byron Center, MI. Their exceptional individual talents are only given context by their swinging rhythm section, which consists of Caleb Downey (Piano), from Cadillac, MI, Noah Prince (Bass), from Grand Rapids, MI, and Chris Majure (Drums), from St. Charles, IL. They strive to provide a musical setting in which the horns can express themselves to the fullest with singing melodies and colorful textures. Together, these six musicians create a vibrant and captivating jazz experience that showcases the individuality of each musician, while creating an enjoyable soundscape all the while. Let your sixth sense be awakened.
