Exclusive Unreleased Track
The Westerlies is an improvising brass quartet made up of trombonists Andy Clausen and Willem De Koch and trumpeters Zubin Hensler and Riley Mulherkar. They stretch the limits of conventional chamber music by emphasizing original composition and improvisation, to create music that resides in the ever-narrowing gap between contemporary classical composition, jazz influenced improvisation, and North American folk music. They’ll be performing at The Royal Room this week with guests pianist Sam Yulsman and drummer Jason Burger.
Upcoming show: Tues., June 12th @ The Royal Room - Zony Mash – “Capricious Midnight”
