SUMMARY:Love Call
DESCRIPTION:Love Call is a collaborative trio consisting of saxophonist Max Bessesen\, bassist Ethan Philion\, and drummer Devin Drobka. The trio has a distinctive musical approach marked by a congenial sense of trust and a unique\, intuitive group language. Their performances feature free improvisation and compositions by each member of the group. The trio has toured throughout the United States.  \nThe trio formed during the height of the pandemic when Philion and Bessesen coped with their lack of performance opportunities by exploring adventurous new repertoire together in private sessions away from the stage. These informal meetings eventually coalesced into an exploration of free improvisation and abstract composition. The duo reunited with longtime-collaborator Devin Drobka when restrictions were lifted and the unit began to collaborate on new music while performing this material publicly around the country. Love Call performs several times a year ever since 2021 even though the group members live in different cities (New York\, Chicago\, Milwaukee).  \nPhilion is based in Chicago where he performs frequently with Ernest Dawkins\, Mark Feldman\, Greg Ward\, Jon Irabagon\, Russ Johnson\, and more. He is praised for his “astounding musicality” by the Washington Post and deemed “a marvel” by Peter Margasek. Bessesen’s music is described by JAZZIZ as “pushing boundaries without being abstruse…stirringly emotive.” He lives in New York city and has performed with Ron Miles\, Tyler Mitchell\, Darcy James Argue\, and more. Drobka resides in Milwaukee and has worked with a wide variety of artists including Joe Lovano\, Mario Pavonne\, Greg Osby\, Cecil McBee\, and more. Chicago Reader describes his music as “pithy…There isn’t much in the midwest that sounds like this today.

SUMMARY:Spike Sykes and the Awesome Hotcakes
DESCRIPTION:“No one is making this kind of music anymore!” \nBut what\, exactly\, is “this kind of music?” \nLike hotcakes themselves\, it goes by many names. Soul. Swing. Rhythm & Blues. Jazz. Jump. It’s a sound that’s classic and simple\, but when it’s done right\, it hits the spot\, and has you grinning from ear to ear. Spike has spent years searching for this sound. \nFrom the Texas blues joints he cut his teeth into the funky halls of New Orleans\, he was always studying the music\, trying to find just the right recipe. It makes perfect sense that he found his bandmates in Sonoma County\, a music scene that has fostered many eclectic artists for decades. \nWhat he didn’t know was how hungry audiences were for “this kind of music.” You might say they’ve been eating it up like…Hotcakes!
