Brooke Sofferman’s Adventure Time Trio
August 15th @ 1:00 pm to 3:00 pm
The Adventure Time Trio is an energetic, modern jazz trio, drawing from Brooke Sofferman’s extensive original material, and some jazz standards reimagined. Their interplay is often ESP-like, each finishing each other’s thoughts and ideas. The fact that they are good friends off the bandstand, is also apparent, and it lends itself to exciting and sometimes ethereal musical communication.

Sean Farias – bass
