CONCERT OF THE YEAR ~ 2022

JUSTICE – The Vocal Works of Oliver Lake ~ Oliver Lake with Sonic Liberation Front

August 2022 ~ Fire Museum Presents ~ Philadelphia PA

This word class jazz event was presented by Philly’s Fire Museum Presents. It is vital to link the cities of the mid-Atlantic Region to make it financially possible for avant-jazz acts to play beyond Manhattan. There are scenes in DC and Baltimore. Philly has one too and presenters like Fire Museum Presents connect the dots with their booking practices and raise the profiles of regional avant-jazz musicians beyond their home base.
