MAX JOHNSON - Saturdays in April.

Described as “an intrepid composer, architect of sound and beast of the bass...” (Brad Cohan, NYC Jazz Record) composer-bassist Max Johnson creates complex worlds of sound, challenging his listeners to engage deeply and be rewarded with an experience always crafted with love, care, and clarity. With nine albums and over two thousand concerts internationally with artists like Anthony Braxton, Mary Halvorson, Tyshawn Sorey, John Zorn, and Mivos Quartet, Johnson brings a wild energy and excitement. 
He will be in residence at Barbès most Saturdays in April with a different lineup.

This week: - CERBERUS QUINTET

Max Johnson premieres an all-star three-headed tenor saxophone-led quintet for a concert of entirely new music!  With James Brandon Lewis, Hery Paz, and Neta Raanan on tenor saxophone, and Jason Nazary on drums. One of a kind event with three of the most celebrated tenor saxophonists of today.

“Max Johnson is one of the most prolific and versatile musician/composers in music today” (Brad Cohan, New York City Jazz Record)
