Swarm Intelligence Debut (with Ross Hammond Quartet) Swarm Intelligence Debuts!
Swarm Intelligence, a new band featuring the duo Grex (www.grexsounds.com), Jordan Glenn and Cory Wright of Wiener Kids, and Phillip Greenlief and Dan Seamans of the Lost Trio, will be performing along with the Ross Hammond Quartet (w/Vinny Golia, Steuart Liebig, Alex Cline-celebrating the release of Ross’s new CD)! Both bands make their Bay Area debuts! The sextet of Swarm Intelligence synthesizes the sounds of Grex with “the instrumentation and rhythmic concept of modern jazz (reeds/bass/drums), evoking the timbres and improvisational acumen of the likes of the Paul Motian Trio, Liberation Music Orchestra, Marion Brown, and Bennie Maupin while tethering itself to the multi-idiomatic sensibilities of contemporary chamber pop.” The show starts at 9pm and will be broadcast live on KALX Berkeley, the Bay Area’s superb gem of a college radio station. More details about the show and broadcast to come!
