About This Event
At Roulette the lineup includes James Brandon Lewis; Abiodun Oyewole with Taylor Pace; Oliver Lake with Josh Werner; and Tuesday Taylor with Melanie Dyer. Lewis’s balance of written structure and open improvisation, Lake’s decades in avant‑jazz and the World Saxophone Quartet, Oyewole’s Last Poets lineage, and Werner’s movement between free music and ambient jazz foreground intersections of composed ensemble writing, spoken word, and textural improvisation.
