The Azmaris Cover

Join us for a live taping and listening-room concert for the Azmaris! Jason Frey - Tenor Saxophone, Electronics/EFX Carolyn Trowbridge - Vibraphone Mario Castellanos - Upright Bass Andy Beaudoin - Drums Beginning as an Ethio-Jazz offshoot of Austin Afrobeat band Hard Proof, the Azmaris have evolved into their own. Playing in the style of Mulatu Astatke and his use of Ethiopian tonality in a jazz combo setting, the group incorporates jazz instrumentation and psych sensibility to create moody introspective narrations.
