Nate Emerson Trio 8:00 pm
Influenced by jazz greats all the way from Duke Ellington to Wayne Shorter and beyond, the Nate Emerson Trio innovates traditional jazz standards and puts them into a new contemporary light. Composed of Nate Emerson as the leader and bassist assisted by Luisa Zuniga on piano and Kaden Anderson on drums. Originally formed in 2024, they have been seen performing at small and large venues in the West Michigan area.
Quantum Sextet 9:00 pm
The Quantum Committee Sextet blends traditional jazz with innovation and passion. Meeting in the Western Michigan jazz studies program, the six members initially started playing together purely for their love of the music. However, their intensity and commitment increased as they worked on original compositions and expanded their sound. Jacob Nowakowski (Bass), from Bartlett Illinois composes their original pieces while laying down the groundwork for the band. Rohan Marr (Drums) from West Chicago Illinois, and Caleb Downey (Piano) from Cadillac Michigan complete the rhythm section bringing a diversity of textures and fiery passion. Haden Bovee (Alto and Soprano Saxophone) from Middleville Michigan, Colin Woniewski (Trombone) from Byron Center Michigan, and Joji Klooster (Tenor Saxophone) from Redlands California complete the sextet, expanding the harmonic possibilities through their innovative soloistic ideas. Quantum, being inspired largely by jazz legends such as Art Blakey and the Jazz Messengers, Ornette Coleman, and the John Coltrane Quartet seek to reflect these groups' fire, while also bringing a refreshing originality. With the rich history of Jazz as their inspiration interspersed with their individual skills and passion for playing together, the possibilities are endless.
