Either/Orchestra debuts at Jazz Standard NYC on August 8

Everybody knows somebody in NYC, right?

So tell 'em about the Either/Orchestra's debut at the Jazz Standard on Wednesday, August 8



Wednesday, August 8, at 7:30 & 9:30 pm; $20
The E/O makes its first appearance at the Jazz Standard, one of New York City's top jazz clubs


“Reverent AND irreverent...a band that’s been around the world, yet still pushes for more.” AllAboutJazz.com

The Jazz Standard serves excellent barbeque and is a great place to hear a band the size of the E/O. 

Hope to see you, but if you can't make it, please let your friends in NYC know what's going on.  We'd like to establish a new home base in the jazz capital by selling out the house.

“Lush, majestic power... effortlessly and imaginatively bridging the gap between Cuba and Ethiopia...shifting textures and voicings equal to anything Gil Evans ever came up with... One of the two or three best NYC concerts of 2011."


"[They] take totally serious music and make it fun... the sense of groove and joy is overpowering." Mark Saleskisomethingelsereviews
