Christopher Brown Quartet Record Release Party

Wed, Dec 03

$40 TICKETS - Includes New Album | ALL AGES Now that drummer/bandleader Christopher Brown has finally released his debut recording, it's only fitting that he'd commemorate such a milestone here, as it has been here that his group has spent the better part of our existence having dialed in the sound that you'll hear on this record. However, while his new record Sole City can be easily thought of as a love letter to his hometown of Portland, it's not without its nod to both the gritty and sophisticated streets of the NYC Jazz scene, as it's where the real bedrock of his musicianship and artistic vision was built. So as you attend this show, know that you'll be helping both this world-class group of musicians and The 1905 memorialize a really special moment in time, as it promises to serve as a symbolic catalyst for the plans that Christopher and his group have in store for both Portland and the state of Oregon as a whole. So mark your calendars for December 3rd to not only claim a copy of Sole City for yourself, but to be enveloped into the cultural fold of both a band and an ensuing movement towards changing the landscape of how Jazz musicians are viewed and integrated into the deeper folds of our city. So once again, both this performance and Sole City itself will be a masterclass in composition and improvisation that will resonate long after the last note fades.
