NYC: THE IRIDIUM PRESENTS THE WAYNE KRANTZ BAND
Wayne Krantz, an American jazz fusion guitarist, will perform at IRIDIUM JAZZ CLUB (1650 Broadway, NYC - 212-582-2121) on Saturday, June 29th with shows at 8:00 & 10:00 pm. Krantz has played with top artists such as Steely Dan, Michael Brecker, Billy Cobham, and others, but is most active as a solo performer. Krantz released his first album, Signals, in 1990, sporting an array of recognized jazz musicians such as Dennis Chambers, Leni Stern, Anthony Jackson, and others. However, in 1992, he formed a trio with bassist Lincoln Goines and drummer Zach Danziger, and recorded two albums with them; Long To Be Loose, in 1993, and a live album, 2 Drink Minimum, in 1995. In doing so, he began to play periodically at the 55 Bar, a diverse and premier jazz club in New York City. In 1996, Krantz released an acoustic album with Leni Stern, dubbed Separate Cages. Wayne formed a new trio in 1997, consisting of his ferocious guitar skills, complemented by Tim Lefebvre on electric bass and Keith Carlock on drums, new sounds that would change his music's style drastically. On June 28, 2007, Krantz played his final regular Thursday night gig at New York's 55 Bar. He contributed to Steely Dan co-founder Donald Fagen's newest release, Morph the Cat, and participated in touring with Fagen's band in early 2006. In another rare sideman role, Krantz was featured on tenor saxophonist Chris Potter's 2006 release, Underground. There is a $30 cover plus a $15 food/drink minimum.
