The Keith Price Double Quartet @ The Yardbird Suite

The Yardbird Suite in Edmonton

Sat, Apr 29 @ 8:00 PM

Show Notes:

The Keith Price Double Quartet is an adventurous eight-piece group of musicians that explores jazz improvisation through the vehicles of groove and rhythm. The group's debut performance was of a new and largely spontaneous soundtrack for the classic western film "The Good, the Bad and the Ugly" (treated as a silent film), created as part of Jazz Winnipeg's ground-breaking Nu Sounds Series in 2013. While drawing influence from Miles Davis' electric jazz period (1969-75), the group also incorporates rhythms and approaches from electronica and world music.

For their special two-night appearance at the Yardbird Suite, the Double Quartet will perform their improvised soundtrack for "The Good, the Bad and the Ugly" on Friday, April 28, 2017, and material from their new album on Saturday, April 29, 2017.
