Performance

Cinder Sessions II

1 upcoming performance in New York

Cinder Sessions II arrives at The Stone at The New School as a night-length set built around improvisation and composed fragments, where rock/pop pulse and jazz language meet without settling into either. The ensemble features Matana Roberts on saxophone, Chris Ryan Williams on trumpet, Lester St. Louis on cello, Adi Meyerson on bass, and Ryan Sawyer on drums, with a special guest. In a city where genre labels often map onto separate scenes, this series reads as a document of musicianship in transit. The room’s close acoustics make the shifts in texture and leadership part of the story.
