Ausverkauft: Marc Ribot Quartet “Hurry Red Telephone”

Das Konzert ist ausverkauft, es wird keine Abendkasse mehr geben.

Marc Ribot's Spiritual Unity worked together for several years in the early '00s, continuing their Albert Ayler-influenced path as the Grimes Taylor Ribot Trio after the death of trumpeter Roy Campbell Jr. until Mr. Grimes' failing health forced the end of their legendary performances in 2018. "Those gigs with Henry were the best music I've ever played on...or heard...," Mr. Ribot said of their final string of trio performances. Since then, Mr. Ribot and drummer Chad Taylor had been searching for a format to continue that work.

With "Hurry Red Telephone" (the title is a quote from the Richard Siken poem "Several Tremendous"), they found it.

Ribot comments:
"When I first heard Sebastian Steinberg's bass playing (with Joe Morris in the 1980s), I thought, "THIS is what I'm looking for: a gifted improviser, a deep groove player, and totally original. We worked together in my band Shrek and other formats in the early 1990s until Sebastian moved to LA, and I'm very excited to resume our collaboration. Ava Mendoza is the perfect addition to this quartet - a great soloist, a sensitive ensemble player who knows how to rock the house.

We are ready to take it to the next level.
