Join is for a unique evening of new jazz with Starlicker, a trio comprised of Rob Mazurek (cornet), John Herndon (percussion), and Jason Adasiewicz (vibraphone). This Chicago-based trio has an intense, hard-driving aesthetic, built on the sturdy rhythmic waves of Herdon’s drumming, that recalls the hey day of the New York jazz club Tonic in the late 90’s. Mazurek is also a member of Exploding Star Orchestra and Chicago Underground, and he has collaborated with a varied roster of musicians and bands including Jim O’Rourke, Bill Dixon, Pharoah Sanders and Stereolab. Herdon is also the drummer of post rock ensemble, Tortoise. Their debut release “Double Demon” was released recently on Delmark Records.
