All About Jazz
In a unique collaboration between Szczecin Jazz and Jazz on the Dnipro Festival, Ukrainian musicians-turned-soldiers perform a one-off concert in Poland to celebrate the persistence of partnership, peace, and jazz on August 9 at Lagów Landscape Park. Later in August, the event will be broadcasted via JazzCorner.com. Almost six months into the atrocious reality of war in Ukraine, the reality of loss is horrifyingly apparent to the world.

Lively's concert recording service allows bands to offer both audio and video recording of the show after it's over using a mobile app for delivery.

Offering fans the opportunity to purchase live recordings right after a great show could be a powerful future revenue stream for musicians, and Migratory Music is offering the Ovation Tower as one solution.

The Show I Didn't Miss Last Week: The Wallace Roney Sextet

JazzINK by Andrea Canter
I love my annual treks to northern California but it always seems to coincide with something special, jazz speaking, back home in the Twin Cities. In the past week, I missed the too-infrequent appearance of Patricia Barber (at the Dakota). I heard positive comments about the show. I missed the first performance of the quartet Good Life (Brandon Wozniak, Peter Schimke, Billy Peterson, Kenny Horst) at the Artists Quarter. I heard positive comments about the show. I missed a rare ...

Medeski, Martin and Wood to Perform at the Showbox
Source:
Seattle Jazz Scene
The jazz trio Medeski Martin and Wood first performed together in 1991 at the now-defunct Village Gate nightclub in downtown Manhattan, in a style neither they nor others put a name to. They sounded as much like a rock band as a jazz group, creating some new fans, and puzzling some others. In retrospect, the trio (also known as MMW), which performs Saturday night at the Showbox at the Market, was part of a shift in jazz, although few were ...

Michael Ricci
"Brass, Bows, and Beats: A Hip-Hop Symphony" is one of the most exciting new works of American music in years--a seamless fusion of jazz, funk, hip-hop, electronica, and digital turntable that deserves to be heard worldwide (now!), from the Main Stage in Monterey to the Auditorium Stravinsky in Montreux. With the first electronic-accented dirge beat of “Darkness and Light," San Francisco Yoshi's was enveloped in the promise of something very special about to unfold. By the time the magnificent, horns-blaring, ...
