About:
This unique and spectacular supergroup comprises some of the greatest musicians of all time: Saxophonist Bill Evans rose to international jazz fame as a member of Miles Davis' celebrated comeback band of the early 1980s. Bassist Darryl Jones has been with the Rolling Stones since 1993 but prior to that also toured and recorded extensively with Miles Davis and Sting among others. Drummer Manu Katché is revered for his work with Peter Gabriel, Joni Mitchell, Jan Garbarek and Jeff Beck and many others. Pianist Niels Lan Doky, was knighted by HM the Queen of Denmark and has collaborated with a who’s-who in jazz, from Michael Brecker, Pat Metheny, David Sanborn, Jack DeJohnette, Gary Peacock to Toots Thielemans, John McLaughlin, Ray Brown, Al Jarreau and beyond. Tonight’s concert will feature mostly original compositions by the members of the group and is exclusive to SOUND DUES - this group will not perform together anywhere else in the world in 2021.
