This week, Dimitriou’s Jazz Alley will host The Bad Plus for two jazz-filled, energizing nights. On Tuesday, June 7 and Wednesday, June 8, bassist Reid Anderson, pianist Ethan Iverson, and drummer David King will take the stage with their unique brand of jazz fusion. All the way from Nirvana covers to their original material, this trio has become known for pushing the boundaries of jazz. According to Billboard:
“Audacious, rule-breaking jazz trio crunches and at times pulverizes swing to let improvisational freedom shine…Dynamics play a huge roll in the act’s music, as does humor, an element sorely lacking in most of contemporary jazz. But beauty is also key… jazz purists tremble while the vanguard flocks.”
