Bryan and the Aardvarks

Show Description

Recently, featured in NY's 2013 Jazz Winter Festival, the NY Times and others reviewed their sound as, " some of the prettiest and most thoughtful music existing in the line-up." The group is led by bassist and composer Bryan Copeland, a Texan mostly weaned on pop and country music. The band favors strong melody and gentle communion — a natural fit for the vibraphonist Chris Dingman and keyboardist Fabian Almazan.  Jeff Wanser of Jazz Reviews writes, " Lush, cinematic, contemporary jazz that is difficult to categorize, but easy to swallow."  Band members include: Bryan Copeland (upright bass), Chris Dingman (vibes), Fabian Alamzan (piano), Jesse Lewis (guitar), and Joe Nero (drums).
