More Information
The main purpose of this group is to establish a reliable mailing list / network to help SPREAD THE WORD for upcoming Free Jazz / improvisation / Chicago Side Projects etc. events coming to the Milwaukee Area. A lot of these shows sneak in and out too quietly due to lack of publicity. Here is a sample of the type of projects/Musicians I am referring to (that have visited Milwaukee in the past few years):
Peter Brotzmann - David Boykin Expanse - The Engines - Triage - Ken Vandermark - The Rempis Percussion Quartet - DKV Trio - The Territory Band - Atomic - The Frame Quartet - Vandermark/Nilssen-Love Duo - DK3 Trio - Peter Brötzmann Chicago Tentet - Holy Sh!t. - Klang (James Falzone/Jason Adaisewicz/Jason Roebke/Tim Daisy) - Plastic People of the Universe - Collected Fiction (Okka Disk) cd release concert - Marcin Wasilewski Trio - Lilya Zilberstein - Evan Parker; the list goes on......
