James Brandon Lewis Quartet

Acclaimed saxophonist James Brandon Lewis returns with his quartet for a special two-day residency following the release of their fifth album, Abstraction Is Deliverance. Known for a powerful yet lyrical tenor sound, Lewis leads a quartet that develops a spirited interplay, reacting to the finest atmospheric oscillations. Lewis is a critically-acclaimed composer whose work often braids together fundamentals of music theory with metaphors from molecular biology. Voted Rising Star Tenor Saxophonist by Downbeat magazine, his music balances gospel-informed spirituality with free-jazz abandon and hard-hitting funk underpinnings.
