    About This Event

    Percussionist Daniel Sadownick leads a five-piece group that treats rhythm as a structural element rather than mere accompaniment, moving between tight unison figures, open solo space and carefully controlled shifts in dynamics. At The Django they apply a bebop-informed language that favors precision and forward motion over display, with Sadownick steering form from the kit and the ensemble prioritizing collective listening.
