Jim Hart
Jim Hart is one of the most in-demand musicians on the European jazz and alternative music scene, as a soloist and sideman on drums and vibraphone. His background in both jazz and classical music – combined with his interest in the traditional music of Latin America and West Africa and its part in contemporary improvised music – has helped to define his creative personality, melding a distinctive and strong sense of harmony, melody and rhythm.
As a bandleader, he has recorded six albums of his own music which have enjoyed radio airplay and have been critically acclaimed worldwide. Hart leads Cloudmakers Trio and Cloudmakers Five and his eminence across Europe includes a pivotal role in the Marius Neset Quintet (vibes, marimba and percussion), Daniel Erdmann’s Revolution (vibes) and Vula Viel’s exploration of the rhythmic systems of Ghanaian traditional music (drums).

Spinifex, Angelica Sanchez / Camila Nebbia Duo, & Rob Mazurek
by Maurice Hogue
The unpredictable but always powerful Dutch sextet, Spinifex, is releasing its latest album in North America, Undrilling The Hole, so it will be interesting to see if the band gains some traction in North America. Hopefully it will; they're a no-prisoners-taken ensemble. Brooklyn's I-Beam was the venue for a most interesting and perhaps inevitable hook-up for ...
