Face-melting Jazz at the coolest music spot in SB.
Seriously, Wayne Horvitz and Sweeter than the day came to the barn last year and blew our minds. This is a rare opportunity to see over-the-top jazz musicians rocking your socks off completely ACOUSTIC (except for a little amp of the electric guitar).
Wayne's touring with Sweeter than the Day, a description is below.
If you've never been to the Barn, this is a great opportunity. On a private 11-acre property about 7 minutes from downtown, the Barn is a recording studio that becomes an amazing two-level performance space. Seating only 50, it's an intimate experience for everyone - performers and listeners both.
This show is going to appear in the Independent on Thursday, and that will probably sell it out, so get your tickets now.
Once you get tickets, you'll be on the list to get the super-secret directions the day before the event: www.SBSecretConcerts.com
Notes: BYOB. No heels (the barn is in a rustic setting, no pavement). Be on time - between 7-730.
Tickets at www.SBSecretConcerts.com
Hope to see you there!
Sweeter Than the Day:
Wayne Horvitz - Piano and Keyboards
Timothy Young - Guitars
Keith Lowe - Acoustic Bass
Eric Eagle - Drums
Formed in 1999, Sweeter Than the Day began simply as the acoustic incarnation of Zony Mash. The band played a series of weekly shows at Seattle's Baltic Room, and quickly became Wayne Horvitz’s first piano-based ensemble in over 10 years.
Despite the shared personnel, the ensemble is quite distinct from the electric Zony Mash and the repetoire is almost entirely different. The band has toured throughout the US, Canada and Europe, and has a West Coast tour of the US planned for March of 2007. Sweeter Than the Day also presents double bills with Robin Holcomb, where it also serves as Robin's backup band.
Sweeter Than the Day recorded 2 CDs for Songlines: American Bandstand (now re-titled Forever) (2000) and Sweeter Than the Day (2002). The band's most recent recording is A Walk in the Dark (2008).
" ...a great showcase for Horvitz's beautiful compositions, his really strange angular chord progressions.
Ned Wharton, NPR's Weekend Edition
"On piano, Horvitz is economical yet lyrical, never venturing far from the strong melodic hooks which characterize his compositions, but constantly working small surprises. An irresistible antidote to gray days."
