8pm  Faith

Matt Lavelle: Trumpet/Alto Clarinet, Chris Forbes: Piano, Ryan Sawyer: Drums and Francois Grillot: Bass

“Last year my Mother had her third Brain surgery.Her first words afterwords:”We are here to Love one another.” Faith in the process of life has always been her mantra and strength.I was led to process her experience through my own with this very special quartet with three of my closest musical brothers.This is more than a gig but the birth of a musical and spiritual process.With Ryan Sawyer on drums,Christopher Forbes on Piano,and Francios Grillot on Bass.The actual rhythm section from the 12 Houses Orchestra,these guys are my shadow,my other heartbeat,and my rock..they know me musically better than anyone.This project focuses on these musical relationships as well.Coltrane’s spiritual quest most def an influence.”

9:30 Tim Stocker and Fechner’s Law

Tim Stocker: Baritone Sax & Compositions, Des White: Bass, Rajiv Jayaweera: Drums
Fechner’s law is the concept that the magnitude of a subjective sensation increases proportional to the logarithm of the stimulus intensity.
Australian Baritone Saxophonist Tim Stocker debuts a new Trio at the firehouse space playing his original compositions inspired by distance and time.
“Tim Stocker sat in on baritone sax and played beautifully. The large instrument sounded magnificent, round and darkly rolling, in the room.” - Excerpt from ‘A Discontinuous Diary’ by John Clare.
