Events Description

 

Under the leadership of JUNO nominated and 10X Global Music Award winning jazz pianist NICK MACLEAN, SNAGGLE is an electric-jazz-funk ensemble often described by media as “Canada’s answer to Snarky Puppy”. The group features as its frontline the all-star horn duo the ALI BROS. BROWNMAN ALI (Guru, Jay-Z, Randy Brecker) and MARCUS ALI (Matt Dusk, Jason Wilson, Mr Something Something), both highly decorated and renowned musicians, have been featured as a pair on countless records owing to the almost telepathic synergy they share in addition to their highly sought-after talents as individual soloists. Maclean and the Ali Bros stand shoulder to shoulder with some of Toronto’s top-tier electric jazz players: JAY YOO on guitar, MATT GRUEBNER on bass, and ADAM MANSFIELD on drums. Sporting an all-original repertoire the group has a fearless and muscular yet introspective sound likened to a cross between electric-era Miles Davis and Rage Against the Machine that swings their live show from quietly contemplative all the way to explosively fierce – sometimes all within the same tune.

Debuting brand new material to be featured on an upcoming full length studio album, these performances will feature deeply exploratory, groovy electric-jazz that audiences will not want to miss.
